Handy Dad - Dads Use Their Skills to Engage Their Children
Sure he's the only one who can open the stubborn pickle jar and he's the go-to guy when the toilet is plugged, or the car is making funny noises but what if he wants to be more in the lives of his children? What if he wants to be that cool dad that is engaged in their lives? Then he needs a game plan, and he'll find Handy Dad is the perfect resource.

Common Products Make Exciting Projects
Using common materials from around the house or available at the local hardware store, Handy Dad projects include summer-friendly Water-Balloon Launchers and Water-Pressurized Rockets. For those two-legged tornadoes who live with you a climbing wall or a zip line could channel that excessive energy. Or for the more imaginative child, a dollhouse or circus tent custom made by dad will make their eyes sparkle.

Handy Dad is a visual delight with plenty of color photographs, easy-to-follow instructions, and helpful notes as to difficulty level and time involved. (Note: a project remarks that it took the author one beer to complete, but that appears to be an isolated comment.) Written by Todd Davis, a record-breaking extreme athlete, and host of HGTV's Over Your Head, Handy Dad gives busy dads 25 kid-loving projects that can take anywhere from five minutes to a full weekend to complete.
