My son has a night-light where you can program it to turn a different color at a certain time, so at 6:30 it will flick from blue to yellow and I will hear him scream: &#8216;It\u2019s yellow, come get me!'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Daniel added that his morning must-haves include warm gloves to keep his hands toasty during &#8220;the walks to school&#8221; and silicon toppers for baby food pouches, adding: &#8220;These things are a parenting essential that I feel more people should know about.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The actor went on to share that he loves to take pictures of his son so his partner Erin has embarked on a mission to have them all printed out for him so he has physical copies of the snaps on his phone.<\/p>\n<p>\nHe explained: &#8220;The first year after our son was born, I was looking through my phone at all the pictures I have of him and I was like: &#8216;Oh, man, it just makes me sad that these are all just on my phone.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;And so for the last few Christmases and birthdays, Erin has been getting hundreds of photos of him developed. I\u2019ve divided the photos into two piles, which are &#8216;amazing photos&#8217; and &#8216;life-changing photos&#8217;. That box of photos of him would be my prized possession&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>\nDaniel went on to add that he hopes his son doesn&#8217;t follow him into the acting industry because he really doesn&#8217;t want him to become famous.<\/p>\n<p>\nSpeaking about growing up on the Harry Potter set with his co-stars Rupert Grint and Emma Watson, he told the publication: &#8220;People often talk about me, Rupert and Emma and the Harry Potter kids in general as being a good example of: &#8216;See, it can all be fine,&#8217; and yes it can be, but we all worked really hard on ourselves to make it fine. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I honestly wouldn\u2019t want my son to act or to become famous.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/daniel-radcliffe-opens-fatherhood-1438496.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3 March 2026 Daniel Radcliffe has opened up about fatherhood has changed his life.
