As the tiny patter of feet is soon to take over Pocket-lint Towers, we are adding a new tab for fathers. The new section will cover all that is male about child rearing and feature news, reviews, tricks and tips.

Welcome to The Dad Blog

As expectant parents Ben and Stuart trawled the Internet for information, in search of enlightenment, only to find a total lack of anything relevant to men.

If they'd wanted to know about blooming health in the second trimester, or that nipple rash could be eased with auspicious use of cabbage leaves then they would have been well served. But they didn't. They wanted to know which pushchairs would engender buggie envy, what the range of various baby listeners were (for pub visiting purposes) and whether the purchase of a games console could be justified for its "educational" benefits.

As a result, Dad is here. Written in blog form, it aims to address not only the challenges of child rearing from a male persepctive, but to cover news and reviews of the baby gadgetry that boys can really get excited about.

Over the coming months we'll be reviewing the very best in buggies, toys, car seats, baby listeners and anything else that is gadgety enough to interest us.

If it's mechanical, holds batteries, can be installed in a car, is a toy or requires manual labour to construct then it's in.
