How Small Moments of Play can lead to Big Changes in your child’s future. Brought to you by Red Racer Books and Waytoplay Toys

    Fathers Day Grand Prix Bundle dad and kids playing with cars and tracks

    I always dreamed of being a father and having kids of my own. Growing up, my own parents were not always around as much as I would have liked. While they are wonderful parents, as immigrants in the US, they sacrificed a lot to provide for me and my sister and give us opportunities they didn’t have growing up. They both worked a lot, which set a great example, but meant they were not always present. I was fortunate that my grandfather aka “abuelo” was around to be another male role model in my life.

    I’m a father now, of two beautiful kids Blanca and Joaquin, and I’ve prioritized spending time with them – something incredibly fulfilling and fun for me.  It turns out that spending time with them, engaging them in shared interests and playing is also incredibly beneficial to them.

    With Red Racer Books, my hope was to create a series of books that give parents something to enjoy with their kids. My books are meant for both moms and dads to enjoy with children of all genders, but I have heard from many customers that it’s given dads a great way to connect with their kids around a shared love of racing and cars that go fast.   

    Father's Day Grand Prix: Read, create, race, and bond - the perfect way to fuel your play this Father%u2019s Day.   At Red Racer Books, we celebrate the role of fathers in fostering the love of reading and the joy of play. Playtime between fathers and their children has been proven to not only strengthen the bond between them but also contribute to the child's holistic development. That%u2019s why we%u2019ve partnered with Way To Play Toys, a brand rooted in fostering creativity and connection.

     

     

     

    That’s why it made so much sense to partner with Waytoplay toys for a special Father’s Day collaboration made to spark connection between dads and their kids, educate and engage them in imaginative play, and strengthen bonds.

    The Importance of Play: Connecting Fathers and Kids through Fun and Learning 

    While the concept of play is often associated with children, it holds equal importance in the lives of fathers and their little ones. Playtime between fathers and their children not only strengthens the bond between them but also contributes to the child's holistic development. We explored the significance of play with fathers and garnered some valuable insights on the benefits of play.

    Playing with your children is like planting seeds that will continue to grow for decades to come.

     

    Why is playing with your kids so important? 

     

    • Building Strong Connections:

    Play provides fathers with a unique opportunity to forge deep emotional connections with their children. Engaging in playful activities not only creates moments of joy but also helps fathers understand their children better. Whether it's flipping through the pages of a captivating book, acting out characters, or engaging in interactive games, fathers can use playtime as a platform for open communication, nurturing trust, and strengthening their relationship.

     

    • Developing Essential Life Skills:

    Play is a powerful vehicle for learning, and fathers play a crucial role in facilitating their child's growth and development. Through play, fathers can encourage creativity, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills.  

     

    • Fostering Emotional Intelligence:

    Playtime allows fathers to teach their children about empathy, emotions, and social interactions. Through role-playing, storytelling, and pretend play, fathers can help their children understand different perspectives and develop emotional intelligence. 

     

    Creating Lasting Memories:

    The memories formed during playtime with fathers become cherished moments that children carry with them into adulthood!  The power of a shared interest is a great way to create those memories - through a hobby, a sport, or anything you can both enjoy together. Luckily I can share my love of F1 racing with my kids and it’s been great to start a new family tradition and lots of memories together.  This shared interest sparked the idea for Red Racer Books!

    About Way to Play Toys

    Way To Play is an extraordinary toy brand, a family-run business originating from the Netherlands 🇳🇱. What makes them even more remarkable is that they began their journey with crowdfunding, just like Red Racer Books. It's truly gratifying to

    partner with another company that recognizes the significance of community, creativity, imagination, care, and connection.

    Let me share with you what sets Way To Play Toys apart – they craft exceptionally flexible, ultra-durable, and waterproof roads of all varieties, allowing your children to play with their existing collection of cars and trucks right at home. We even brought them along to the beach this summer because they're waterproof, soft, and simple to assemble. Complete with a kit to construct your very own Grand Prix racing circuit, children can design their own tracks and indulge in imaginative and creative play. These qualities are instrumental in fostering children's development and growth.
