Fathers' Story Week - Helping dads and children get the reading habit

Let’s get more dads into reading !!






Fathers' Story Week is an annual celebration of the power of dads' reading with their children. 


Join thousands of schools, nurseries, children's centres, libraries and other family learning settings across Britain, to celebrate the fantastic benefits of fathers and children reading together.



Children whose dads read regularly with them, do better at school – and fathers who value education and get involved in school life can hugely improve their children's life chances.

That's why the Fatherhood Institute created Fathers' Story Week in 2010. In the last 3 years more than 5,000 schools and other family learning settings have celebrated fathers' vital role in supporting their children's education, using our lesson plans and activity ideas to create opportunities for children to experience father-focused learning and events in the week leading up to Father's Day.
