This review is from: Weekend Dad: 101 Wonderful Ideas for Creating Memorable Time with Your Children (Paperback)

Weekend Dad by Bob Hilton is the best book of its kind. Every dad and every child will benefit from this wonderful collection of fun tips and adventures. It's filled with things to do that my dad used to do with me. And, lots of fun things that my own dad never thought to do with me. It really brings back fond memories of the best days I spend with my dad. I look forward to tackling everything in the book one weekend at a time.

This review is from: Weekend Dad: 101 Wonderful Ideas for Creating Memorable Time with Your Children (Paperback)

As a single Dad, I wish this book had been published when I was rearing my son. The book has 101 ideas, ideas that can be expanded into many more. Bob Hilton does a grand job of relating those ideas to guys like me who lack his versatility in creative ways to have fun with your kids. It is a wonderful guide for Dads and one that no Dad should be without. This book is a must have.
