Welcome to AdventureDad.org!
The roots of AdventureDad.org took hold 19 years ago as I dreamed of taking my soon-to-be-born son on adventures with me. As he grew, I was able to create a flexible work schedule that allowed us time for all sorts of adventures. I would frequently hear from other parents, “You do so much cool stuff with Alex, you should write a book about things to do with your kids!”
Today, I find myself with the opportunity to blend our father/son experiences with my 30 years as a child/family therapist and create AdventureDad.org.
The goal of AdventureDad is to help dads build deeper, more meaningful relationships with their kids through time spent together on exciting, fun and unique adventures in the great outdoors and other venues.
