Our Library Link-ups are fun, free and filled with joy.
Library Link-Ups
Our signature program is a monthly gathering of fathers and children at metro Atlanta libraries. It includes:
-
Group storytime (read by our team)
-
Father-child activities and read-aloud tips
-
Blocks, puzzles, games and coloring for kids
-
Fathers engaging and building deep connections

Father-child storytime (read among themselves)
Whenever we have an upcoming Library Link-up, registration can be found on Eventbrite.

15+ books for babies

Books & Bites
We partner with Chick-fil-A for a quarterly "Books and Bites" program at their Piedmont Road location.
We provide adults and children with books, while the store supplies families with light bites.
Father & Kid Field Trips
We gather together quarterly as a community to visit local exhibits and attractions across metro Atlanta. Locations have included:
-
Arcade
-
Aquarium
-
Bowling Alley
-
Farm
-
Indoor playgrounds
These special moments provide quality experiences, enhance a child's background knowledge and increase father-child engagement.
Father Time
We believe father time is undefeated, meaning everybody wins when fathers spend intentional time with other like-minded dads.
We gather fathers together quarterly for some social fun, deep conversations or a meaningful workshop.
"Learning to read at a young age equips children to succeed in school and life. That’s why programs like Library Dads matter. By bringing families into the learning journey, they’re helping kids build brighter futures, one story at a time."
