How is it Celebrated?
Some people try to make this day special for their fathers and father-like figures. Many celebrate the day by visiting their fathers, buying them gifts, flowers or greeting cards and try to thank them for their contribution in making them who they are.
How Did It Begin?
Sonora Smart Dodd, a woman from the United States, is given the credit for the origin of Father’s Day. Many believe that she was inspired by the American Mother's Day and promoted a day dedicated to celebrate the fathers. The United State celebrated its first Father’s Day on 19 June 1910.
