Activities for Dad & baby to do

I am looking for activities or activity that my husband and 4.5mth (nearly 5mth) old can do together on a Sunday morning while I'm at work. I want something that becomes their thing (without mummy).
Does anyone have any ideas of what he can do with her on a regular basis (something they can do in all kinds of weather) or groups/activities he can join.
We live on the North Shore in Auckland

Any help would be great.

it seems Dads like to do mnore physical things so the swimming/playground/walk would be great and I think it could develop into something else later when bubba is a bit bigger. there is a mainly music class on while I'm at work but hubby has said several times that in those groups it is usually jkust women and he feels intimidated when they "hunt in packs"

I was going to say swimming as well!

I wish more Dad's would come to our music, but most of them are working I guess we have had the odd Dad come in their holiday's etc. One Dad even brought the toddler's when Mum had just had baby that was cool.
maybe there are other Dad's that feel the same way in palmy maybe give the music team a ring and find out if they have any guy's attending.   i can totally understand how your DH would feel a little intimated we are a very scarey bunch us woman all in a group.
Oh I was going to say swimming DH loves going swiming with the boy's.

thanks for the help. i'll suggest to DH 2 see if he wants to do swimming. Wish dads had the opportunity like mums to get together.

From the beginning Grant took bathtime over from me. When I was pregnant with her he told me it is his thing.

When they are alone they love going to the park.

Rough and tumbe (yes even at that stage and it is really good for them) Just playing with her as if she is an aeroplane and flying her around.

Going for walks and talking about all the different things they see. Sometimes dads have more patience with this kind of thing.

Going to a pond and feeding the ducks.

What was nice is these front pack carriers that you can put baby in instead of a pram sometimes.

They just went for really long walks and do their kind of chatting ect and she seemed to have loved it.

Just let them chill sometimes and let him do what he wants to do with kiddy. They do come up with their own things that we sometimes never thought off.
