Why Dads4Kids Exists
The data shows that fatherlessness contributes to almost all the social issues facing our nation today. The statistics are grim, but there is hope, and Dads4Kids is leading the way.
Pints and Ponytails
Pints and Ponytails events offer fathers a relaxed, low-pressure space where they can learn how to style their daughters' hair while bonding and sharing parenting experiences. As a father of five beautiful daughters, I wish I’d thought of such a marvellous idea myself!
Celebrating Milestones
Dads have an important role to play in helping to build emotional resilience and reinforcing positive mindsets. By celebrating our children’s achievements — whether big milestones or small daily wins — we help foster their self-confidence.
How to DAD
Kiwi dad Jordan Watson of "How to DAD" brings laughs and realness to fatherhood, inspiring other parents' journeys and highlighting the power of community, courage, and learning as you go.
Dad’s Saturday Morning Pancakes
Family meals shape memories, faith, and fatherhood. Nathaniel Marsh reflects on presence-based parenting, kitchen mishaps, and simple traditions like Saturday morning pancakes, that build lasting relationships across generations.
New Year, New Beginnings
The New Year brings new beginnings. As we head into 2026, the heart of Dads4Kids continues to beat strong with fresh energy and new opportunities.
These Are The Hands
Nathaniel Marsh reflects on 21.5 years of marriage, the beauty of shared hands and tender moments, and the enduring power of love inspired by family and faith.
A Fantastic Dads4Kids Fun Camp Weekend
A big THANK YOU to the 64 dads, granddads and kids who joined us last weekend for the Dads4Kids Fun Camp. It was absolutely fantastic!!! Something amazing happens when dads get away from the everyday and create time with their kids.
The ‘D’ Word
Whether you like it or not, words have power, especially when it comes to parenting. Used with thoughtful intention, words can build up and create. Used carelessly or worse, recklessly, they can tear down and destroy. One word that seems to have gone out of fashion is the ‘D’ word, Discipline.
Memories Forever
The 2025 Dads4Kids Fun Camp will be held from 7 – 8 November at the beautiful Coolendel Campground, located on the Shoalhaven River around three hours south of Sydney. Build memories forever with your kids.
