A Little About Father's Day...

Contrary to what many believe, Father's Day wasn't invented by any particular card company to drum up business during a quiet summer! Most countries, including Ireland, the United States and the UK, celebrate Father's Day on the third Sunday of June. There are several theories behind the first Father's Day but generally the first father to receive a pair of socks and a tie was William Jackson Smart. He was a US Civil War veteran and after his wife died in 1898, he raised his six children in Spokane, Washington. His daughter was so moved by his efforts to raise their family, and inspired by the latest holiday of Mother's Day, she started a campaign to have Father's Day officially recognised. Through her efforts, the first Father's day was celebrated on June 19th 1910. It was officially recognised in 1972 under President Nixon. So this Father's Day, instead of going to your local store and picking up something at the last minute, why not plan early and get something a little more unusual online.

We have some good memories with our fathers, such as playing balls, camping, fishing and riding, we play every kind of games like every father and his children when we are little ones, but we don't wanna lose these feelings and will keep it forever.

Now it's time to make more wonderful memories!

It's your turn, Dad!
