Ultimate Dad Stuff by Steve Caplin
Children expect the earth from their fathers. They have to be able to conjure up games from thin air, to answer every question under the sun, to skim stones, and tell bedtime stories. ULTIMATE DAD STUFF is the book every father needs to keep up with their kids. Bringing together two separates volumes, it is the one stop shop for games, useful knowledge, puzzles and activities. ULTIMATE DAD STUFF is packed with great things to do with the kids. Some new, some traditional: how to learn to ride a bike without tears; how to play the spoons; a rainy afternoon's supply of knock knock jokes; a selection of magic tricks and how to answer 'Dad, where do babies come from?' There is a range of ideas to suit all situations -- games, puzzles, practical jokes and spooky urban myths. A father's work is never done and ULTIMATE DAD STUFF supplies even more fun, with magic, puzzles, things to make and games to play. All guaranteed to stave off the cry of 'Dad, are we there yet?'
Winner of the Orange Prize for Screenwriting, Simon Rose wrote the film The Flying Scotsman with Jonny Lee Miller. He's author of 14 books including the novel Filthy Lucre. 5 were in collaboration with Steve Caplin. He frequently plays the spoons in assorted venues, usually just before being asked to leave. Steve is an award-winning photomontage artist whose work appears in magazines and newspapers around the world. He is the author of eight books on digital design. He spends his spare time building improbable sculptures, and plays the accordion when no-one's listening. Mercifully, the two of them have yet to duet together.
