Childhood lost strength. We build it back. One week at a time.
Every Wednesday, one real thing to do with your kid. Dirt, fire, kitchens, neighbors. Two hundred activities, free forever. No ads. No algorithm. No upsell. Your gift is the only reason it stays free.
You read Haidt. You nodded.
Then screen time won anyway.
You do not need another lecture. You need a next step. We hand you one every week.
Pro-adventure, not anti-screen.
strongerKIDS is not a website with activities.
It is three things money cannot fake. A real thing to do every week. The stories that prove it works. And the one kid-gear list no brand can buy.
Give Where It's Needed Most
Not sure where to point it? This is the one we recommend.
Your gift funds the whole machine. New activities, the Wednesday plan, the stories. Plus the boring parts that keep it free. We send updates so you see where it went.
Fund an Activity
About $250A gift of around $250 helps fund one real thing a family can do this Saturday. Free forever.
Kid runs dinner start to finish. Builds a fort. Climbs one branch higher. We cover the research, the parent test, the six-panel guide, the whole page. Want your name on one? We can add "Built with the ___ family." We send updates showing the activities your giving made.
Join the Wednesday Club
From $5/monthThis is the engine. Monthly gifts keep the plan landing and the library free.
The plan takes 60 seconds to read. One provocation. One antidote. Done.
- $5/month helps swap one screen hour. Every week.
- $10/month helps keep the Wednesday plan landing in inboxes.
- $25/month helps fund a steady drip of new activities all year.
You are not a line item. You are in the club. Early activities. The story behind each week's plan. The good stuff first.
Spread the Playbook
From $15Some families will never find this on their own. Help reach the ones who need it most.
- $15 helps put an activity pack in one family's hands.
- $50 helps reach a small group. A troop, a daycare room.
- $300 helps reach a whole classroom for a year.
- $1,000 helps a Title I school or a shelter for a year.
Fifteen bucks helps reach one family for a week. Picture a hundred.
Capture a Story
From $25The proof is the stories. A dad lets his kid run the kitchen. A kid fixes the broken thing. You watch it make them capable.
We collect the true ones and hand them to the next family.
- $25 helps capture one story.
- $150 helps fund one story start to finish. Filmed, edited, published.
Give it in someone's name. The dad who taught you the thing. Free card.
Underwrite the Work
$1,000 and upFor foundations, donor-advised funds, and brands that give a sh!t.
Your gift fuels the whole movement. The library, the plan, and the flagship book, "Dads Who Give a Sh!t." Written by two regular dads with six kids and a pile of receipts. No experts. No heroes. Just the truth about how hard this is and exactly what to do next.
- $1,000 helps fund about a month of new activities.
- $5,000 helps underwrite one pillar for a quarter. Fuel, Move, Mind, or Belong.
- $10,000 helps fund a full year of Wednesday plans.
- $25,000+ Founding Underwriter. Name a pillar. Logo on the site.
A logo is a thank-you. Not a co-sign. Inspirations, not endorsements. Still true here.

Fund the First of Its Kind
From $30The one kid-gear list no brand can buy. Amazon sells everything. Influencers take the kickback. We take neither.
We buy it. We break it. Real kids break it harder. Your gift funds the testing, never a spot on the list.
- $30 helps test one product start to finish.
- $100 helps test a whole category. Scooters, helmets, packs.
- $500 helps keep the testing independent for a month.
Switzerland for kid gear. Your dollar buys honesty, not a logo. Money never buys a pick.
We are not experts. We are dads who did the thing.
We kept the receipts and gave it away free. Every dollar is unrestricted and goes to the work. We show you where it lands. Ask us anything.
You give. A kid does a real thing. We show you.
A kid says "I'm bored." A parent has a plan. The family does one real thing this Saturday. A story gets told. Another family does the same.
That is the loop. Your gift runs it.
The stories that defined us are the ones our kids should get to have too. Help us hand every parent the plan to make them happen.
