Review & Giveaway: 51 Frugal Father-Daughter Dates
Bringing up two little girls can be worrisome in today’s society. It’s so important that provide strong foundations to ensure that they grow to be secure, confident, and emotionally balanced women. According to Focus on the Family, “girls with involved fathers are more likely to have healthier relationships with the opposite sex because they learn from their fathers how proper men act toward women. They know what behaviors are appropriate.”
Dr. Meg Meeker, pediatrician and author of Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters says, “Fathers have a tremendous power over their daughters. That’s not just the way it’s supposed to be; that’s the way it is. The dad is really the daughter’s first love. He is the most important man in her life. His interactions with her set her up for how she’s going to relate to all other men and to God. That’s a heavy load, but a wonderful truth. If she learns to like her dad, and she can trust him, she’ll have a much easier time trusting her husband and trusting God.”
A great way to begin fostering this relationship between fathers and their daughters is to encourage the fathers you know {yourself or spouse included} to take time each week to go on a “date” with each of his girls. These dates don’t have to be elaborate, and they don’t have to cost anything. A simple walk around the block {without iPods} and conversation is all it takes for girls to feel that they are the most important person in their father’s world.

This 60-page eBook shares free, under $5, under $10, under $20, and under $50 date suggestions. It’s nice to have a collection of ideas at hand when you have a little bit of extra time alone with one of your kids. In fact, since I downloaded it, I’ve tried out a few ideas with the kids myself.
