3-piece daily play set

I promise myself that I will definitely spend time with my family on the weekends.
A one-minute play solution for struggling dads every day.

There is nothing more desolate than returning home after a day of war, trying to protect the most precious thing in the world, your family, only to be pushed out.
"Dad's Play Encyclopedia" author Jo Jun-hyu, the father of four children, struggled late into the night, burdened by the heavy burden of responsibility. One day, however, his children turned away, saying, "Dad, go!" He felt a sense of crisis, as if his relationship with his wife had become estranged.
He wanted to re-enter the family, but the child's closed heart did not open easily.
While I was struggling like that, I happened to learn about dad play, and I started playing a little bit with my kids at home after work.

The power of dad play is greater than you think. In less than a month of playing, I went from being a father who was shy with his children to a father whose children eagerly awaited him.
When the kids went to see their father, the wife also got a sweet break.
I wanted to share the miraculous transformation from a silent home to a home filled with laughter, so I started sharing my play on social media.
At the request of those around me, I started providing play content through the Facebook page "Dad and Dad," which eventually led to the publication of the "Dad Play Encyclopedia."

The moment you open the book
Today's play begins

All the games in the “Dad’s Play Encyclopedia” can be played at home and do not require any special preparation.
Most of the play is done naked, and the supplies that are sometimes needed are things that are already available at home or can be easily obtained, such as coins, blankets, handkerchiefs, books, newspapers, and paper cups.
So, when you can't think of what to do, just open any page and choose today's game.
The games in the book are categorized into 'crawler', 'walker', and 'runner', but even a seven-year-old can enjoy the games in the 'crawler' category.
Dad can change the game and play with it depending on the child's interest.

?Dad's Play Encyclopedia?
This book is for these people, and has these characteristics.

“Most existing childcare services focus solely on mothers.
“It was created for fathers struggling in a society where participation in childcare is taken for granted, but leaving work on time to take care of the family is not.” - From the book

-A great dad: A dad who values ​​his family and wants to share his heart with his children and wife.
As a child's first play teacher and best playmate, I want to play with him using my strong strength and stamina, sense of adventure and creativity, over-the-top action and humor.

-Busy dad: Lack of time with children due to heavy workload.
We've introduced a simple dad game that can be played in just 1 minute so that you can enjoy the short time you spend together on weekday evenings.

- Inexperienced fathers: Fathers in their 30s and 40s don't have many memories of spending time with their fathers when they were young.
This is because fathers of the industrialized generation were unable to participate in childcare due to the historical, cultural, and economic conditions.

-Fathers with children aged 2 to 7: The time when fathers and children can play in earnest is from the age of 2, when the child's body develops rapidly. During this period, communication with fathers is especially important.

- Dads who raise children after work: It is realistically difficult to do anything special after getting off work on weekday evenings.
When you don't have much time, moving to a place to play or preparing for it is an excessive luxury.
Right now! Right here! We need games we can play at home.

- Fathers who are interested in their children's growth: For children with underdeveloped language development, play is a means of expressing their emotions.
We also practice social skills by setting rules together and being considerate of each other.
Additionally, problem-solving skills and self-esteem develop as children experience and solve various problems that arise during play.
There are countless other positive effects, including the development of creativity and endurance.
If you want your child to grow up healthy, you have to let them play properly.
