What Daddies Like

Fun with Daddy

Let’s talk about all the fun things daddies like to do! Daddies love giving smooches and hugs. They enjoy saying “Good morning” to you with a big smile.

Adventures and Playtime

Daddies are always ready for adventures. They love pushing you on swings and playing pretend games like being a kangaroo. Roaring like monsters is so much fun, but daddies also enjoy some quiet time to relax.

Water Fun and Peekaboo

Splish, splash! Daddies like playing in the water and pretending to be on boats. Peekaboo is a favorite game, and it always makes everyone giggle!

Bedtime and Snuggles

When it’s time for bed, daddies like putting on jammies and looking at the stars. Night lights help make the room cozy and safe. Snuggling up and getting ready for sleep is a special time.

The Best Part

But do you know what daddies like the most? Hearing you say, “I love you.” That’s the best part of all!

  • How do you feel when you play games like peekaboo or pretend to be animals? Why do you think these games are so much fun?
  • What is your favorite part of the day with your daddy or a special grown-up? Is it playing, snuggling, or something else? Why do you like it the most?
  • Adventure Time Drawing: Draw a picture of your favorite adventure with your daddy. It could be playing on the swings, pretending to be a kangaroo, or roaring like a monster. Share your drawing with the class and describe what makes this adventure special.
  • Water Play Experiment: With the help of an adult, fill a small tub with water and gather some floating toys or objects. Pretend you are on a boat with your daddy. Observe which objects float and which ones sink. Discuss why some things float and others don’t. Can you find something that surprises you?
  • Bedtime Star Gazing: Create a simple starry sky using black paper and stickers or by drawing stars with white crayons. Imagine you are looking at the stars with your daddy. What shapes or patterns can you find? Share your starry sky with a friend and tell them a bedtime story about your stars.
