Welcome to Dad Blog
Fatherhood, ADHD, and Nostalgia in One Place
“Fatherhood is a journey… sometimes a chaotic, sleep-deprived, LEGO-infested one. But would we have it any other way? Probably not (except maybe with more sleep)”
I'm Seb, a 30-something UK dad blogger, home educator, and ADHD-fuelled storyteller. DadBlog.co.uk is my little corner of the internet, where I share the realities of parenting, the joys of 80s/90s nostalgia (remember these forgotten 80’s and 90’s toys?), and the unique struggles (and wins) of raising neurodiverse kids.
Mother’s Day is just around the corner! Whether you’re looking for the perfect card message, a heartfelt quote, or a gift idea that won’t land you in the dog-house, I’ve got you covered:

👋 Meet Seb
The Dad Behind DadBlog.co.uk
I'm Seb, husband, dad of five, and professional LEGO-stepper. When I'm not writing, I'm home educating our neurodiverse crew, reliving 90s nostalgia, or figuring out why there are never enough matching socks in the house.
Husband to a wonderful wife. Don’t call me a dad influencer, because I’m not (yet…)
Why did I start Dadblog.co.uk?
Because fatherhood isn't just 'winging it' – it's a full-time, often underappreciated, but absolutely brilliant job. I wanted a space where dads (and parents in general) could find:
✅ Honest stories about parenting wins and fails
✅ Advice on home education & raising neurodiverse kids
✅ Throwbacks to the greatest era – the 80s & 90s
✅ The finest selection of dad jokes known to humankind
This is Dad Blog and this is my story.
Stick around for “fun, inane ramblings, a little bit of wisdom (hopefully) parental advice, our educational journey, some quips and entertainment and whatever else takes my fancy.
