Although the majority of sons and daughters do not require a specific date to commemorate the most essential man in their life, every father does have his own day on the calendar. This year’s Father’s Day is June 19, 2022. The ceremony will shift days every year on account of the changing seasons. Keep in mind that Dad’s Day always falls on the third Sunday in June.
Looking back, Father’s Day has little basis in history – and it was created by a woman. According to History.com, Sonora Smart Dodd “endeavoured to establish an official equivalent to Mother’s Day for male parents” in 1909. She went around the community asking businesses to support her plan, and on June 19, 1910, Washington became the first state to celebrate Father’s Day.
According to a recent presidential proclamation, Father’s Day is officially celebrated every third Sunday of June in the Philippines, but it is not a public holiday. It is popularly observed on the third Sunday of June as decreed by late President Corazon Cojuangco Aquino in 1988 because of American influence.
Despite the circumstances, Filipinos feel that honouring the first man in their lives is acceptable. Despite the epidemic, they find methods to pay homage to their fathers. Here are some things to think about.
Learn About Your Family History With Tatay
Even if you knew everything there is to know about your father, there is so much more to learn about him, especially his roots. Trace Tatay’s family tree uses a family album and memorabilia to discover information on his parents and relatives’ histories.
Movie Night at Home
Create a warm and inviting atmosphere while cooking delicious food. If popcorn isn’t enough, get takeout from Dad’s favourite restaurant. Simply spend time with your father and family.
Sing With Him
Watch as he brings down the house using his serious karaoke talents, as well as his favorite dance steps when you hand him the microphone.
Get Some Drinks
If your father prefers a glass of whiskey every now and then, go with it. Simply sit back and listen to a good discussion while sipping some beverages.
Game Night
This is a very special day for Tatay. How about having a game night with dad and the whole family, as it’s natural to do with friends? There are numerous games to select from, such as Pictionary or Taboo, as well as Pinoy Henyo.
Get Physical

Be a Chef With Papa
Dads are delighted to prepare meals for their children. They cook once in a while for the family, and they pass on a special dish to their children. This is the time to learn how to make it with him if he has a guarded recipe.
If your dad doesn’t cook, urge him to participate in the cooking. Before the cooking time, conduct research on the menu and acquire all of the ingredients.
Shop Online
It’s never too soon to begin preparing for the holidays. Presents will always be a part of the celebration, so shop online for everything he’ll need. Make plans with his mother and siblings on what to give him on his special day.

Be Creative
Make something with him and the family, or even paint together to make a wonderful memory on Father’s Day.
