A Developing Trend Towards Dads That Cook

By Jason Glover


Over recent times research has a found an increase in the number of dads that are staying at home. Changes within the home of many families has found that there is increase in the number of dads that cook. This increase my take some people by surprise by there is a lot dads who are enjoying the new way of life. The increasing number of stay at home dads has led to an increase in blogs such as my daddy cooks.

This change in cooking habits has also meant that the questions about what to cook for dinner is now being asked by the dads rather than the mums. There is still a lot of people who are looking for easy to cook ideas, however there has always been a demand for this. The amount of different recipes that are being tackled by dads has increased and this has helped to encourage other dads to cook too even if it is only one night a week.

There are a number of reasons why dad are cooking for their family. In some cases the dads are cooking because they take turns to cook or because they have found themselves without a job and therefore they have become a stay at home dad. When a dad loses his job it can be a very hard thing to cope with.

One good thing about being a stay home dad is that you get to spend more time with your children and this is possibly one of the best things that you can do. It is fair to say that at some point the dad will need to return to work however in the short term most dads find it nice to be at home with their children and spending their time caring for their family.

There is an increasing amount of blogs that has been written around the theme of dads that cook. These blogs can be a good place to find interesting and fresh meals which are also beneficial for the health of their family.

These dads are getting more creative with their cooking and they are starting to incorporate all types of herbs, ingredients and spices. Whilst trying to cook tasty healthy meals they are also trying to keep everything within a budget.

The age of the children will affect how easy it is to cater for all tastes. In most cases young children will be willing to eat almost anything however older children have a tendency to be fussy when it comes to eating. When cooking for young children the one thing that you need to take into account is the ability of the child to eat.

Another idea that might be very useful is to involve the children with the cooking. Most children will enjoy getting their hands dirty helping their parent to cook some food. When the children are involved in the cooking it can be easier to encourage them to eat their meal as they have assisted in the making of the food.
