Father's
Day is a great opportunity to appreciate the love and effort of our fathers. This holiday honors all fathers, grandfathers,
great-grandfathers, and father figures for their contribution. The Day was
created to complement Mother's Day.
F-fantastic,
A-awesome, T-terrific, H-honorable, E-excellent, R-remarkable…This sums up a
good dad...
Wishing all fathers out there to feel loved
& appreciated! Happy Father's Day!
● Suggestions on how
to spend the day
Many
people in Canada celebrate Father’s Day in a variety of ways to express their
love and gratitude to fathers or father figures.
Father’s Day activities include (but are
not limited to):
- Participating
in Father’s Day fun runs and other events in which the proceeds go towards
charity or prostate cancer research.
- Buying
presents such as neckties and other items of clothing, chocolates, books or
equipment for various types of hobbies.
- Giving
handmade or purchased cards.
- Breakfasts,
brunches, lunches, or dinners either at home or in restaurants.
- Taking
fathers or father figures out to the movies, the park, the zoo, or another
place of interest.
Some
people organize joint Father’s Day parties and activities with close friends
and family. Those who live away from their fathers or father figures may make
long-distance phone calls, send an email or online card, or arrange for gifts
to be delivered on Father’s Day. Some museums and other venues open to
the general public may host special Father’s Day celebrations where fathers and
father figures can enter free of charge.
