Parenting is a tough task and needs to be done right so that your child grows up to be a good citizen contributing to the society. It is a continuous process, that is, you learn something new everyday while looking after a kid. If you want to be super daddy in the eyes of your children here are some tips that you can use.

1. Spend quality time

The best thing you can do for your child is to spare some time for them. How much ever busy work keeps you, make sure your kids aren’t feeling neglected and make them feel cherished by reading books to them, narrating stories, having dinner with them, etc.

2.Be good to their mother

You may adore your kid to pieces but it wont help if you mistreat or be indifferent to his or her mother. Children are naturally more attached to those who gave birth to them, so respect and love for their mother will help you gain respect in the eyes of your offspring.

3.Buy gifts occasionally

Gifts are a child’s delight and what better way to win their heart than gifting them things they love. However, you should see to it that the gifts are being valued and given occasionally so that your child doesn’t take them for granted and become a spoilt brat.

4.Have fun weekends with your child

Besides your friends, keep your weekends free for your children. Take them to zoos, parks, theaters, malls, museums and such other places so that your child has his or her fill of outdoor fun.
