We’re taking a short detour from parenting talk in order to do a little signal boosting. Maintaining this dadblog is actually a decent amount of work, so it stands to reason that I’d like to try and reach as wide an audience as possible. (Well, that and I’ve attached a couple of fund-raising links to the site, so casting a wider net may help in that department as well.)
With that in mind, I’ve decided that the last Thursday post of the month will actually be made on a Friday in order to follow the #FollowFriday trend online. I’d greatly appreciate it if readers of this blog would share this page with friends or groups that mind find this interesting or entertaining.
Every @DearJackRabbit #FollowFriday I’m going to also post links to the top four posts of the months–posts which readers seem to have enjoyed the most so that any new friends we pick up along the way can see what we’ve been up to.
This week the Top Four are:
- Dear Jackrabbit #5 – Wheaton’s Law: Don’t Be a Dick
- The Google Generation (goo goo google!)
- Dear Jackrabbit #4 – Fatherly Advice On Food (Part 1 of ?)
- Dear Jackrabbit #3 – Books
I’m also going to link to a couple of sites I found interesting over the past month. And ask you to check them out as well. #FollowFriday is all about sharing, after all. For instance, consider:
Dungeons & Dragons – Monster Slayers
Folks know I’m a bit of a gamer geek and that I can’t wait for Jack to get old enough to play some interesting games. While researching a column on gaming for kids, this was one that got me particularly excited. If you have kids aged 6 and up, you may want to check out this site and follow its creator Susan J. Morris (@susanjmorris).

Carrie Wagner is the artist behind SepiaLepus Illustration. We really enjoy her work and her artwork is ideal not just for a child’s room, but for any room in the house. We have four or five hanging in various places around the house, and will only be adding more over time. She shows up at a lot of art show events in and around Rhode Island, but also has an Etsy shop. You should check out her work and follow her at @Sepialepus on Twitter.
And that’s our #Follow Friday for this month. Thanks to all our readers, and please feel free to share our site with others. We can be found on Twitter and Facebook (see links to the right of this post).
Jack appreciates it too!
Cheers!
–John
