HAPPY FATHER'S DAY

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY :


Father's Day is a celebration honoring fathers and celebrating fatherhood, paternal bonds, and the influence of fathers in society. Many countries celebrate it on the third Sunday of June, though it is also celebrated widely on other days by many other countries. Father's Day was created to complement Mother's Day, a celebration that honors mothers and motherhood.

Make your dad feel special this father's day 

Help dad enjoy the day.

 Perhaps you'll let him sleep in this morning, or perhaps you won't badger him over something you'd normally badger him over. Whatever it is, let it be his day. Some nice ways to start it include:


  • Making your dad a breakfast in bed:
  • Bringing him the newspaper to read in bed
  • Making his favorite pot of coffee

Make it a family event.

 Father's Day is by nature a family event. Use this opportunity to get everyone in the family together for a fun day. Think about including all the dads in your family, not just your own father. Could your celebration include husbands, would-be future dads, your uncles, and brothers? If so, do it—the more the merrier! And don't forget step-fathers—they're important too. You don't have to remain at home; you could go to the beach, a local park, a favorite spot of dad's!

Consider building the celebration around an activity you all can enjoy
  • Having a family picnic
  • Enjoying a family barbecue
  • Wacthing the world cup with your dad.

Be creative. 

When it comes to making gifts for Father's Day, perhaps steer clear of the traditional store-bought gifts of tie and socks. He's probably still got last year's socks stuffed at the back of the drawer. Expensive or typical gifts are not necessary, but the time and effort you put in to create a personalized tribute, will be deeply appreciated. Instead, let your own creative abilities shine and make him something special:
  • Bake a cake
  • Make his favorite dinner
  • If you're artistically inclined, draw or paint a portrait of your dad from a favorite photo or from memory

Celebrate your shared experiences with your dad.
 Look at old photos of you and your dad doing fun things together. Take a walk down memory lane by creating either a photo albumor a photo slideshow. You may be surprised at how many things you both have forgotten about and how much they mean to you.

Acknowledge the importance of fatherhood.

 Being a father is a tough job. Dads are responsible for at least one half of the financial and emotional well-being of the family. A thoughtful card, a letter, or short speech that expresses your love will benefit both you and your dad. Giving dad a heartfelt speech, toast, or card of genuine, loving words at the dinner table, or at some other point when all the family are around (siblings especially), will make this a poignant occasion.


Make the day joyful for your dad .

 The most important aspect of the day is that you are present and attentive. It does not take material presents to make a dad happy—it takes showing your love, and reassuring your dad that you're proud of him and all he's done for you. For many fathers, the most rewarding part of being a father is feeling that your children love you, and the knowledge that each child is on a path to a successful future, no matter what age, and is coping well with the problems that life inevitably throws at us all.

End his "fun-filled day" by telling your father you love him.


  •  Don't forget his hug
