A downloadable resource from the UK Literacy Trust about involving fathers and male carers in reading with their children, aimed at professionals who work with parents rather than the parents themselves.
Father's impact on their children's education and achievement
Children, both boys and girls, benefit enormously from their fathers' involvement in their learning and education. And what matters most is not how much time fathers spend with their children, but the quality of what they do when they are together.

Children want "ordinary activities" with their dads
Britain's children want not expensive holidays, computers or bikes from their dads, but shared time playing football, chatting at bedtime, being helped with homework, "messing about", being cooked for, attending the mosque, going shopping.
Think Fathers "Dad test"
The free downloadable Think Fathers Dad Test is designed to help managers and practitioners start to assess how father-inclusive their service is, with ideas for small changes that can help meet the needs of mums, dads and children more effectively.
