About Me

I’m a proud Dad of a 3 year old boy and Uncle to a niece and nephews.

I love planning days out with my family – and whether it’s just with my son, with my wonderful wife as well, or with wider family or friends, they’re all ‘Days Out With Dad’.

So if you’re a Dad / Parent / Guardian and you have children that are either babies, toddlers, teens, or older – then this site is for you!

I’m no expert – this journey is a huge learning curve – you don’t need me to tell you that – but hopefully I can pass on some ideas, reviews, tricks and tips, and hopefully you’ll pass on some of your own.

What will your next adventure be?
