    About Tory Anderson

    I have been married 28 years. I am the father (and Dad) of eight children. I had lots plans for my life, but find my family is taking up almost all the space. I have no regrets. In addition to the family I have been employed in technology for 25 years, and pursue life history writing, photography, gardening, and taekwondo.

        The average dad spends about 6 hours a week with his kids. That’s not perfect, but today’s dads are doing better than the previous generation. PlaygroundDad.com is for the dads who dare to make the most of these 6 sacred hours–no smart phones; no conference calls–just quality time.

        Playground Dad connects this new generation of fathers with the events and products that help them spend better time with their newborn to grade school aged kids.
