215. Craig & Neshama Parks Party Central Daddy Daughter Duo

I absolutely loved the message I received from today’s guest Craig Parks: “First off I want to say thank you so much for the podcast you did with Oscar Stewart.  As a synagogue professional myself and in light of what happened in Texas this episode really resonated with me as we try to balance security with our Jewish value of hachnasat orchim, welcoming the stranger.   Your podcast is so diverse and as a professional musician, parent educator and entrepreneur it would be a treat to share music, stories, and ways for parents to create lifelong happy childhood memories with their kids.   I started a show with my then 5 year old daughter when the pandemic started filled with music, shtick, and interactive games on FB LIve.  We have done 64 episodes so far and I put a couple of them on YouTube if you want to check it out.  It is called Parks Party Central.  Being a camp director of Jewish day camps for 25 years and being a dad of two has taught me a ton that I am now ready to share with the world.   Fun songs, parenting advice that can help them increase joy and reduce stress, and leaving your audience with hope & inspiration would be great.” I knew I had to have Craig and his daughter Neshama on after that message! What kind of relationship do you want with your kids and your world?  When life doesn’t go as planned and it’s not working, then what?  Today we are talking and singing along with Craig Parks who’s been a camp director for 25 years and was afraid to be a girl dad!  He’s now a dad of 2, a husband, and a parent educator! Today you guys are in for a musical Daddy daughter duo treat!  Craig teaches parents to have fun with their children he says you need to open up and use your voice and intentionality!   Connect with Craig https://instagram.com/parentingharmony?utm_medium=copy_link http://craigparksmusic.com/ [email protected] Oscar Stewart Protector Of Poway episode  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/better-call-daddy/id1525296416?i=1000547178342     Connect with Reena linkedin.com/in/reenafriedmanwatts twitter.com/reenareena instagram.com/reenafriedmanwatts [email protected]   Subscribe and drop me and my daddy a five star review podchaser.com/bettercalldaddy ratethispodcast.com/bettercalldaddy
