Abstract | Participants in the Dad's Day at the Center for Young Children program meet on Saturday mornings for a series of 12 sessions which combine play and discussion group activities. The first hour of each session is structured so that fathers and their 2-, 3-, and 4-year-old children can spend time together experiencing new toys, foods, arts, and games in individual and planned group activities. During the second hour of the program, aides supervise and lead children's activities while the fathers discuss various aspects of child development and parenting; and share their problems, concerns, and feelings about fatherhood with other men who have a common interest in being actively involved dads. Included in this program description are lists of program goals for fathers and children, an outline of discussion topics fathers selected as beneficial, and a discussion of implications of the program's success for early childhood educators. Resources for program development are pointed out. A 20-item reference list is appended. (RH) |
