There’s something timeless about a father sitting down with his child and opening a book. The voice, presence, and love all weave together to create a memory that lasts well beyond the story’s final page.
But here’s the truth: not every child has that experience. That’s why I’m so proud to support the Read Me a Story, Dad Podcast—a phenomenal nonprofit initiative where fathers and grandfathers read stories children enjoy.
This isn’t just about books. It’s about rewriting the narrative for families everywhere.
The Mission: Fathers Reading, Children Thriving
The Read Me a Story, Dad Podcast is simple yet powerful: fathers and grandfathers read aloud to children—instilling literacy, sparking imagination, and serving as positive male role models.
- Promoting literacy: Storytelling builds comprehension and a lifelong love for reading.
- Encouraging communication: Kids gain confidence by hearing stories told with warmth and care.
- Fostering connection: Fathers are role models—even for kids who may not have one at home.
In a world filled with distractions, our kids desperately need this kind of intentional presence.
My Contribution: Three Stories for Young Hearts
I had the honor of recording my three stories for the podcast. I invite you and your children to enjoy and share them with others!
Each story is a chance to pause, connect, and remember that children need our voices, time, and love.
Why This Matters
Too often, the role of fathers in children’s literacy is overlooked. However, studies show that when dads read to their kids, children thrive.
This podcast is on a mission to reach families everywhere. With more than 400 subscribers, it’s already making waves. I believe we can help push it past 1,000 subscribers and beyond.
Imagine thousands of dads worldwide saying yes to reading aloud. Imagine the ripple effect in classrooms, communities, and families.
