Playful Dads

Playful Dads Playful Dads is a small-group series created specifically for fathers who want to be more present, confident, and connected, both at home and with other dads in the same season of life. In each group, dads will spend time with a pediatric OT learning straightforward, evidence-based strategies around sensory regulation and co-regulation, tools that make everyday parenting feel more manageable and more enjoyable. No jargon. No pressure. Just useful information you can actually use. You will not be talked AT, but information will be shared in a relatable way. There’s also space to connect with other fathers navigating similar responsibilities, stressors, and identity shifts. Conversation is open but there is never any pressure to share, speak, or participate beyond simply showing up. Just a low pressure way to be around other dads and share without shame. Come as you are. Leave with practical tools and the reminder that you’re not doing this alone. The registration fee covers the April 4th meet-up. If it’s a strong fit for the group, the goal is to continue as a monthly gathering, creating space for shared learning and giving dads the opportunity to build real, lasting connections over time.
