Is this just a bakery, or something more?

It’s both!

The Sage Dad began with bread, but it’s become a home for:

  • Baked goods & home delivery
  • Dad-focused content and encouragement
  • Kid-crafted gifts & wooden toys
  • Self-care for fathers
  • Simple tools to help you show up fully as a father

We’re growing slow — like a good sourdough — with intention and love.

Dadding Explained

🎒 The Story Behind Our Dadding Items

Where Heart Meets Hands-On Learning

As a dad, I found myself searching for ways to connect, teach, and create — not just in the big milestone moments, but in the quiet, ordinary ones.

Building towers with tiny hands. Practicing letters on wood. Tying shoelaces for the tenth time before breakfast.

That’s where our Dadding Line began — not with a grand idea, but with a handful of wooden shapes and a little girl named Sage, watching closely from the kitchen floor.

🧠 Built with Montessori Principles in Mind

We believe in learning by doing, and letting children explore at their own pace. Inspired by Montessori values, our toys and learning aids are:

  • Simple – intentionally free of clutter, screens, and overstimulation
  • Tactile – made to be held, turned, traced, and explored by little hands
  • Purposeful – every item supports a real-life skill, from tying to tracing to storytelling
  • Open-ended – because imagination does better without a power button

🔋 No Batteries. No Apps. Just Connection.

We’ve got nothing against tech—but we believe in giving children space to wonder without a screen.

Our Dadding items are designed to spark real-life moments between you and your child:

  • A wooden board for tracing letters together
  • A shoe-tying tool to build confidence
  • A memory game for rainy afternoons
  • A handmade gift you helped wrap side-by-side

They’re not just toys — they’re invitations to engage, to slow down, and to show up.

👨‍👧 Made for Present Fathers

Whether you’re a stay-at-home dad, weekend warrior, or bedtime storyteller, these tools are for you.

We know what it means to juggle work, worry, and wonder all at once — and still want to be the kind of dad your child remembers with joy.

So we build products that help you connect, teach with intention, and leave room for wonder.

Each item in our Dadding line is made by hand or thoughtfully sourced, with one mission in mind:

To turn small moments into lasting bonds.

Because that’s what “dadding” really is.

Not perfect. Not polished. Just present.

Just love — made real, one wooden toy at a time.
