Welcome to the May 26, 2008 edition of Daddy’s Toolbox Carnival. This is my first experience at running such a carnival and I’m going through the learning curve right now.

If you would like to participate in next edition of Daddy’s Toolbox Carnival, please submit a post using this handy submission form.
So for my first carnival here are the posts that I found relevant to my “daddy” topic:
Editors Choice: Kevin Heath presents Tips For Helping Our Kids Grow Up Green posted at More4kids. Kevin’s post on green tips for kids is great. My wife and I are always looking for more green tips. He goes into how children learn from adults and that we should be conscious about turning off lights and recycling, among many other ideas!

I’ve been using Twitter (follow me at http://twitter.com/DaddysToolbox) a lot lately and meeting some great fathers and some of them have turned me onto Blog Carnivals. So I would like to set up my own to help generate great content on my blog as well as feature other Daddy blogs and their authors.
Since I am just starting this, my first event will be Monday, May 26th with the deadline for article submissions being Friday, May 23rd at 9PM EST/DST.
