'It really boils down to this: that all life is interrelated...Did you ever stop to think that you can't leave for your job in the morning without being dependent on most of the world? You get up in the morning and go to the bathroom and reach over for the sponge, and that's handed to you by a Pacific islander. You reach for a bar of soap, and that's given to you at the hands of a Frenchman. And then you go into the kitchen to drink your coffee for the morning, and that's poured into your cup by a South American. And maybe you want tea: that's poured into your cup by a Chinese. Or maybe you're desirous of having cocoa for breakfast, and that's poured into your cup by a West African. And then you reach over for your toast, and that's given to you at the hands of an English-speaking farmer, not to mention the baker. And before you finish eating breakfast in the morning, you've depended on more than half of the world. This is the way our universe is structured, this is its interrelated quality. We aren't going to have peace on earth until we recognize this basic fact of the interrelated structure of all reality.' - Martin Luther King Jr, 1967

"When the village feels far away, it’s okay—even necessary—to do the work of one and not hold yourself to the standard of 10. It’s ok if you don’t want to have it all."

“It takes a village to raise a child.” That’s right—an entire small town. Cut yourself a break—you’re just one woman.

Love these pics :)

My husband drew to my attention that Dads I am talking to about carriers probably get enough of Mums telling them what to do at home, so if I wanted to encourage them to use them, maybe I needed to use Dad words....

So here are his words and photo along with other awesome words and photos of Dads using slings, wraps and carriers with their kids. This started small, rapidly grew into a Facebook album of 100 reasons, then an group where you can keep up to date with project developments and share the love of Dads Babywearing (https://www.facebook.com/groups/whydadsbabywear/) and a real life physical book!

The printed book is a celebration of fatherhood, of Dads being my hands on and involved with their children's lives and involving them in theirs. It's made up of some of your favourites here and others unseen online, you can find it here - http://www.babywearingwithjess.com/product/why-dads-babywear/

If you have a babywearing Dad in your house who would be keen to share any other "Dad words" and/or photos of why they wear your kids, email them to us at [email protected] (including Dad's name, child/children's names and approx age in the picture) so we can make you into a poster to share the message with other Dads and others over on our Instagram account www.instagram.com/whydadsbabywear ...

I really rate these guys, the people are so lovely.
Not only can you help the environment by making sure outgrown clothes and equipment get put to good use, you can also have a cuppa, a chat and pick anything you need for your littlest ones. Such a good project. :)
