Playground Dads Meetup: Casual Dad Meetup at KidZone in Rockwall - Kids Play, Dads Hang Out, Free Donuts 🍩🛝

A little while ago I started Playground Dads because I wanted a place where dads could meet other local dads while the kids played.

The first meetup had about 30 dads show up, so we're doing it again!

This time we'll be at KidZone in Rockwall at 10:00 AM on Sunday, July 12.

I'll bring the donuts. 🍩

No agenda, no pressure, and no organized activities. Just dads hanging out while the kids play.

KidZone is one of my favorite playgrounds around. It's fully gated, has lots of shade, and is great for kids of all ages.

If you've been wanting to meet some other local dads, come hang out with us. Hope to see y'all there! 👊

Playground Dads: Casual dad meetup at Hat Creek Burger Company (kids play, dads hang out) 6/27 @ 5pm

I'm Steven, and I started Playground Dads because I realized I couldn't find a place where dads could just meet other dads while the kids played.

The idea is simple.

Bring your kids. Grab some food. Hang out. No agenda, no pressure, and no awkward activities. Just a chance to meet other dads who are in the same stage of life.

This Saturday we're meeting at Hat Creek Burger Company in Rowlett. They have burgers, beer, and a playground, so the kids can burn off some energy while we get to know each other.

I meant to post this here sooner, but if you see this in time, come join us.

📅 Saturday, June 27
🕔 5:00 PM

Whether you've lived here your whole life or just moved to the area, you're welcome. Hope to see some of y'all there. 👊

Playground Meetup for Dads With Babies, Toddlers & Young Kids (6/20/2026

I've got kind of a weird idea.

I'm hosting a playground meetup for dads with babies, toddlers, and younger kids on Saturday, June 20th at 10:00 AM at Rick Oden Park in Garland.

Meetup link: https://meetu.ps/e/Q4F9Y/BpyPZ/i

For dads in the stroller, diaper bag, car seat, and playground years. If your kids are already potty trained, congratulations. Some of us are still negotiating.

No agenda. No pressure.

Come for the donuts. Stay to watch your kids. Oh, and maybe make a new dad friend while you're there.

We're all already taking our kids to the playground anyway. Might as well meet some other dads while we're there.

If a few dads show up and it goes well, maybe we'll do more of these in the future.
