DAD CLUB LONDON IS THE ONE MALE EQUIVALENT OF THE CITY’S MANY MOMMY GROUPS

On warm summer mornings, you can find a group of dads in a London park playing with their kids, fussing over their hats and enjoying the sun, the smell of sunscreen and the gurgle of a splash pad.

Brian MacKenzie, dressed as a Stormtrooper, and his son Aidan, 3, talk about a toy dinosaur in Gibbons Park in London. MacKenzie is a member of Dad Club London, a group that brings fathers, fathers-to-be, and those contemplating fatherhood together to share stories, lessons, and the other things fatherhood brings.
