Good morning Dads.

What's on your mind this weekend? Do you have any plans, with or without the kids? Have you finally admitted defeat and decided that you do in fact have to get someone in to clean the oven? Talk about it all, right here.

Pretty busy weekend so far.

Techniquest, Swimming Lessons, trip to the beach.

Nothing planned for this afternoon though…. Maybe some gardening (the little boy likes to help with the sweeping)

Just putting him down for a nap so I’ve got about 50 min of free time which I should spend productivity but will probably flop down on the sofa!

It’s a science activity centre - lots of hands on exhibits, it’s great for a wide age range of kids (and let’s be honest… adults too!)

My boy is under 3 and loves it and has been talking about “the robot arm” all weekend.

They’ve got a little 1.5 min video that shows some of the exhibits https://www.techniquest.org/discover/whats-inside/

Also - I did indeed flop onto the sofa and spent that precious nap time playing Zelda (it was glorious)

Unless I'm absolutely exhausted, whenever I get my little one down for a nap I'll fill the time with something for me, be it a game, a book, or a TV show. No judgement here, you do what you need to do.
