I'm being serious, I'm not looking for crude jokes here (guys!).
I have a 7-year-old daughter that just told me in no uncertain terms that she needs my attention too. I just find it a little difficult to relate to her, she's all girl. But I'm down with trying, so I'm looking for some advice from women who had great dads. I want to be one too.

I remember the quality time with my dad on weekends going bowling, to the amusement park and believe it or not... some of my best memories was going to the horsetrack with my dad.
It was one on one time.
And keep in mind Steve, it's not necessarily what you do to entertain her, it's that you have one on one time together.
Here's a thought... how about participating in her school? Field trips? Going to the movies?
Or even if you have to run some errands like get the car washed or go to the bank, ask her if she wants to come along and spend those few minutes in the car chatting about her day or asking her about her life, etc. Include her in decisions... you think I should get this or that?
anyway, hope that helps. But you have a smart kid that she actually recognizes and can express her need to spend more time with you.
