Father's day is all about dad and how much we appreciate him. What I didn't know until recently is that in other countries Father's day is celebrated on different days.
We all know (or should know) that in America Father's Day is celebrated on the 3rd week in June. After doing quite a bit of research the origin of this holiday is not clear although some attribute it to Sonora Dodd who was raised by her father after her mother passed away. The important thing is on Father's day dads across the nation get to take it easy.
Kids really love doting on their dad so encourage that. Start by getting them involved in a creative project that results in a hand made gift from the heart. Even if it's just a crayoned card, your kids will love doing it and dad will love getting it. And if you want to treat him like a king, consider bringing him breakfast in bed or grilling dinner for him.
Beyond the kids' gifts 'mom' might just want to get dad something too. Although even a store bought card is appreciated. Men don't want an overly sappy card, they appreciate something funny. Of course there's a lot more to consider beyond cards...
Through different activities and events we make our dad feel very special on the Fathers Day and tell him that "Dad you mean the world to us". Indulging the sweet daddies with breakfast in bed; gifting out cards, flowers, chocolates ,neckties, shirts, electronic gadgets, stationery items; games and various other activities, get-togethers mark Father's Day to strengthen the bond between a father and child and are the traditional way of celebrating Father's Day not only in U. Each June on Father's Day, families treat Dad to dinner out or a special day of Dad-centered activities.
If you are going to go big with a gift for your dad, a GPS is a cool gadget most dads will love. If your father is the James Bond type who needs a GPS for the car, the boat/yacht, trails, and hunting, then there's only one GPS for you: Magellan's CrossOver GPS. If your dad is a biker dude, the best motorcycle GPS may just be Garmin's zumo 550 which provides all the features of a top automotive GPS and customizes Garmin's interface so it's glove-friendly and has left-handed controls makes to easy to operate while driving. One important consideration in selecting a GPS no matter what brand you are looking at is routing quality. Even if two GPS units have identical maps installed, they may choose very different routes. That's because there's a lot of math and algorithms behind how GPS devices figure out the "best" route to your destination. Another consideration is ease of use. Be sure to use the criteria listed above to make sure you buy the right GPS.
Every year Dad gets this one day of celebration and appreciation. We should get excited and plan something special to mark this special day. Father's play a huge role in ever child's development so let's thank them properly.
