Father's Day
Date - 3rd Sunday in June
About Father's Day
fathers day is the day we celebrate our dads. It was invented by a woman named Sonora Smart Dodd who was raised by her father and thought that they should be celebrated just as much as mothers. Her dad was born in June so she chose to hold the first fathers day on June 19th of 1910. It was President Calvin Coolidge who decided to hold fathers day on the third Sunday of June 14 years later.
every one has a different way of celebrating fathers day, here are a few ideas:
- Of course you know that making him breakfast in bed is a good idea, but you can and should make it fancy, fold the napkin fancy, cut the pancakes into fathers day shapes and sprinkle them with powdered sugar, put the syrup in a special dish, and put a few red roses (the fathers day flower) on the side of the tray.
- Let dad chose an outing for you to go on as a family or a movie of his choice, no matter how much you don't like the idea.
- Play the dad quiz to figure out how much you know your dad. Split up into father child teams and ask each child a series of questions about there dad and ask the fathers the same questions about themselves. Add up the correct answers and the kid who got the most right wins! Also try this in reverse with the father answering questions about there child.
- basically, anything you would do for mothers day you can do for fathers day, just make it a little more personalized for dad.
