This dad has a genius dad nap hack

A dad from Louisiana has found a brilliantly creative way to take a dad nap…buying a snorkel!

According to Skyler Nitschke, her dad “bought a snorkel for the sole purpose of taking naps in the pool.” She took a few photos of her dad, face down in the pool, with a snorkel in his mouth, floating on a pool noodle.

This strange, yet brilliantly inventive, super dangerous move, has got us thinking about the depths to which dad will go… just to reach the promised land of a dad nap! With more dads trying to do more at work and at home, getting those naps in are only natural. Here’s some to ‘inspire’ you 😉

This dad uses a classic line, to buy himself some time for something far more important, a dad nap! He had it down to a tee…until he got caught.

Kids throughly engrossed in something? Why not be the comfiest dad-seat going and get yourself some cheeky shut eye in the process!

A game of lights out, and setting a challenge for who can stay in this mode for longest will buy dad at least a few minutes to close his eyes.

If you’re a heavy sleeper, why not be the ultimate decorative model for your child? They’ll only get you later anyway…

What dad nap list is complete without the classic move of them all – taking a nap when they do. One of the best feelings ever!
