Memoirs and Essay Collections

Coffee table books.

Father's Day gifts are tough for some dads—you can only buy a man so many ties, tools, and tech toys. But if Dad's a big reader, you're in luck. Of course, the best book for your dad depends on his passions, so we offer a wide range of titles to help you pick the perfect read for him.

Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow, by Gabrielle Zevin

The Shards, by Bret Easton Ellis

The latest novel by Less Than Zero and American Psycho author Bret Easton Ellis is just a little bit meta.

($28, bookshop.org )

Manhunt, by Gretchen Felker Martin

If your dad's a fan of The Last of Us and other apocalyptic fare, give him this clever (and gory) twist on the end times that was on many top 10 lists last year. In the novel, anyone with too much testosterone becomes a feral monster—and the remaining regular folk must go to extreme lengths to keep their levels right. ($17, bookshop.org )

Just Like Home, by Sarah Gailey

They say you can't go home again, but protagonist Vera must—despite the fact that her dad was a serial killer and there's plenty of eerie things still happening there.

If your dad's more into literary fiction from award-winning novelists, the latest by legendary author Salman Rushdie—a sweeping, multicentury epic about a girl-turned-goddess in India. ($28, bookshop.org )

Demon Copperhead, by Barbara Kingsolver

Inspired by Charles Dickens' classic, David Copperfield , this novel explores the life of an Appalachian boy run wild, dealing with the effects of abject poverty. ($31, bookshop.org )

The Thursday Murder Club, by Richard Osman

In this cozy (and comedic) book—that's about to be made into a Steven Spielberg-produced movie—a group of retirees meet weekly to discuss unsolved cases, then start investigating a murder close to home. (Think Only Murders in the Building , but in book form!) ($17, bookshop.org )

Hide, by Kiersten White

If Dad loves a good scare (and binged his way through Squid Game last year), this book about a horrifying (and deadly) hide-and-seek competition will keep him page-turning well into the night. ($25, barnesandnoble.com )

($10, bookshop.org )

The Bartender's Manifesto: How to Think, Drink, and Create Cocktails Like a Pro

Look Big, by Rachel Levin

Dads who love camping and the outdoors need this guide to encounters with 50 different animals. Journalist Levin gives well-researched advice for surviving run-ins with coyotes, bears, moose, and other large animals, along with helpful tips, anecdotes, and charts for dealing with smaller critters, from bees to skunks. Its illustrations make it the perfect coffee-table book, while its small size means it fits nicely in a backpack. ($12, amazon.com )

Mastering Homebrew, by Randy Mosher

If Dad loves beer, this handbook covers everything he needs to know about brewing his own—from buying the perfect equipment to crafting a flavor that's all his own. ($28, bookshop.org )

Around the World in 80 Books, by David Damrosch

For a wanderlusting dad, this book may inspire his next big reads, with suggestions of epic books set in every corner of the globe. ($28, bookshop.org )

Unmasked: My Life Solving America's Cold Cases, by Paul Holes

Happy-Go-Lucky, by David Sedaris

Does your dad love exploring weird and wild science? This book is full of answers to questions like "What if I took a swim in a spent nuclear pool?", with charming stick figure diagrams and lots of well-researched and entertaining info as to what would happen. (The answer: Probably nothing if you stayed shallow.) If it's a hit, consider gifting the sequel for Dad's birthday or Christmas. ( $26, bookshop.org )

Bruce W. Talamon.Soul. R&B. Funk. Photographs 1972-1982, by Pearl Cleage

For the dad who's all about old-school music, this collection of behind-the-scenes photos by SOUL Newspaper photographer Bruce W. Talamon features all of the greats. Think Parliament-Funkadelic, Aretha Franklin, the Jackson Five, and Diana Ross, just to name a few. This limited-edition version features four prints signed by the photographer. ($66, bookshop.org )

1000 Record Covers, by Michael Ochs

If Dad's a vinyl enthusiast or just a huge rock fan, this anthology of album art will capture his interest for hours.

($25, barnesandnoble.com )

See America: A Celebration of Our National Parks & Treasured Sites, by the Creative Action Network

The 30 Best Father’s Day Gifts

The greatest gift you can offer the father in your life is time spent together. A distant second is a thoughtful sentiment or token that recognizes your unique connection. With that in mind, we selected our favorite Father’s Day gifts that will show your heartfelt affection for Dad —and will be used and loved for years to come.

Flip-flops with a twist

Reef Draftsmen

These leather flip-flops are supportive, well made, and comfortable. But the bottle opener embedded in the sole is what will delight any good-time guy.

Buying Options

Reef flip-flops are beloved among surfers and frequent beachgoers because they are well made, comfortable, and designed with a supportive, arch-friendly sole. But this particular style , made from ethically sourced full-grain leather and non-marking, super-grippy rubber, has a secret in the form of an at-the-ready bottle opener embedded in the sole. Staff writer Samantha Schoech’s husband and surfing father of two loves Reef quality and says that he can’t feel the opener under his foot at all. Dude! Bundle this pair with your gift recipient’s favorite pry-off six-pack, and watch the good times roll.

Vintage vinyl

The Songs Of Bacharach & Costello

Newly remastered, this double album collects all the published songs from the 30-year collaboration of the songwriting duo of Burt Bacharach and Elvis Costello.

The late Burt Bacharach and crooner Elvis Costello wrote and composed together for more than three decades. This newly remastered double album compiled by Costello contains recordings of every song they published in that time. Largely sung by Costello and accompanied on piano by Bacharach, these 18 songs have a throwback, jazzy sound that would play just as well at a cocktail party as in a headphone listening session.

An all-season scarf

Trendhim Grey Striped Cotton Mix Scarf

Light and soft as a feather, this cotton and modal scarf is nearly 6 feet long and lends flair to a range of looks.

A casually looped scarf elevates nearly any outfit, from a T-shirt to a sport coat, and of course it comes in handy if your giftee lives in a place where the weather is changeable. We love this simple, stylish scarf because it’s airy, exceptionally soft, and the perfect length—nearly 6 feet—to serve as a breezy accessory. The frayed-edge scarf is designed in Denmark, woven from cotton and modal, and available in 17 colors and patterns, and it arrives gift-ready in a handsome kraft-paper envelope.

Hangout spot

ENO SingleNest Hammock

Available in 26 colors, this breathable, quick-drying nylon hammock is small enough to take anywhere but durable enough to last for years.

This strong-yet-silky hammock is perfect for camping and backpacking but suitable for close-to-home hangs in the backyard, too. Made from a stretch nylon material and reinforced with triple stitching at the seams, it weighs only 1 pound and stuffs down to the size of a grapefruit. One of our favorite portable hammocks, it comes with strong wire gate carabiners and a nautical-grade line for hanging, so it can safely and securely support up to 400 pounds—more than enough for dogpiles.

An everyday hoodie

Hanes Men’s Full-Zip EcoSmart Hoodie

It doesn’t get simpler or more classic than this cotton-blend, zip-up hoodie with front pouch pockets.

Everyone needs at least one of these in their wardrobe, and this fleece hoodie sweatshirt is affordable enough for you to scoop up a couple (which is a good idea considering how likely it is to be “borrowed” by other family members). This soft, 50-50 cotton-poly hoodie is double-stitched and durable, washer and dryer friendly, and made in part from recycled plastic. It comes in about a dozen colors and in extended sizes from S through 3XL, and it resists pilling. We love it for throwing on over PJs to grab the paper or take the dog out, for wearing on early morning power walks, or for packing as a you-never-know extra layer.

Next-level grilling

Asada: The Art of Mexican-Style Grilling

Asadas, or Mexican-style grilled meats, are a surefire way to kick his barbecue game up a notch. This cookbook rounds up the best sizzles alongside mouthwatering salsas, agua frescas, and veggies.

If the father in your life loves to grill but finds himself in a burger and chicken rut, consider a little inspiration in the form of an asada, a Mexican-style backyard barbecue. In this cookbook , Los Angeles food scene duo Bricia Lopez and Javier Cabral provide more than 100 recipes for main-act asadas (grilled meats), plus essential companions such as botanas (appetizers), seafood, side dishes and vegetables, salsas, aguas frescas, cocktails, and desserts. The book is also an education in ingredients, culture, and handy traditions, like the surprising benefits of cleaning one’s grill with an onion. (Allicin, a compound found in raw alliums, is highly antimicrobial.)

Tip-top toolbox

Trusco Two-Level Toolbox

This two-tier Japanese steel toolbox has a roomy primary chamber and adjustable top compartments to hold smaller objects. It’s more scratch-prone than plastic counterparts, but it makes up for that with cheery colors and butter-smooth hinges.

This exquisite Japanese toolbox is less ding-resistant than plastic toolboxes— including our toolbox pick —so it’s not ideal for a tradesperson on rough-and-tumble job sites. But for someone whose hobby is more genteel (fishing, leatherwork, painting, woodworking), the clean lines and enamel finish of this box are an invitation to create. And it can look quite fetching all beaten up, too. This one is about 13 inches long, with 10 adjustable compartments on top, but the company also sells smaller and larger versions.

Comfy slippers

L.L.Bean Men’s Wicked Good Moccasins

These super-soft, warm, and durable moccasins are fluffier and more breathable than other sheepskin shearling slippers. Although they’re pricey, they’re worth the investment.

Dad’s trek to the garage just got cozier. Plush enough to chill in at home but durable enough to wear outside on a quick errand, the L.L.Bean Wicked Good Moccasins have earned their place as one of our favorite pairs of slippers —and one of our favorite gift suggestions. Available in six colors and sizes 7 through 14, they are constructed of cozy suede shearling with garage-proof rubber bottoms. Even if your gift recipient somehow manages to damage their tight construction, L.L.Bean offers a one-year guarantee.

Joe on the go

Zojirushi Stainless Steel Mug

Perfect to take on the go, this mug offers excellent heat retention and a leakproof lid.

The Zojirushi Stainless Steel Mug is one of Wirecutter’s oldest and most beloved picks: Even after five years of testing, it still beats the 13 other travel mugs we’ve tried. Thanks to its vacuum insulation, it keeps coffee (or tea, or bone broth—whatever your giftee is into) piping hot for hours, even in cold environments. And its lid locks so securely that even the bumpiest drives won’t cause splashes or spills. It comes in a number of peppy colors (salmon, aqua) and subdued hues (navy, black, gray) to best match your giftee’s style.

A classic cool tee

Bonobos Soft Everyday Tee

This Bonobos T-shirt is blocky and stretchy, and it comes in a dozen colors and in sizes up to XXL.

Add 2 to cart

Whether your gift recipient has serious sartorial tastes or just needs to upgrade their collection of comfy basics, the Bonobos Soft Everyday Tee will get them looking sharp and feeling fresh. It stood out as one of our top white men’s T-shirts since it was sturdier than some shirts we tried that were double the price. And it was stretchy yet still had a boxy shape that our testers found flattering. It’s also available up to size XXL, in a dozen colors, and in several cuts. You can choose a crew neck or a V-neck, with a front pocket or without, a slim fit or a standard fit, and a regular or short torso length.

Sunny side up

Lululemon Men’s Days Shade Ball Cap

This adjustable and lightweight ball cap is waterproof and features a sweat-wicking interior headband.

The father in your life probably has a few baseball caps, and in all likelihood, they’ve probably seen better days. The Men’s Days Shade Ball Cap from Lululemon is perfect for exercising or just wearing in hot summer weather. Not only is this ultra-lightweight hat more sleek and attractive than whatever raggedy college cap your giftee usually rocks, but it’s also made with a sweat-wicking fabric that in our tests didn’t smell after several outdoor runs.

Better cold brew

VacOne Air Brewer

This compact vacuum-extraction coffee maker designed by an engineer brews up to 100 cups of hot or cold joe on one charge.

Trade Coffee Subscription

When you sign up, you take a quiz that asks about your coffee experience level, what you use to brew, and your flavor preferences. Then Trade intelligently curates a selection of coffee from high-end roasters.

Eduardo Umaña is an engineer and watch designer with an affinity for the flavorful nuances of cold-brew coffee. To satiate that love, he designed the VacOne Air Brewer as an effectively fast vacuum-extraction system, and it has proved capable of retaining the delicate notes of some of our favorite roasts. The USB-powered battery allows the appliance to run 100 extractions between charges, and the brewer is adept at making both hot coffee and cold brew with the push of a button. Get one for the coffee aficionado who has limited counter space and pair it with a monthly coffee subscription from a premium roaster.

A gentleman’s chainsaw

Ego Power+ 18″ Chainsaw

This electric chainsaw is light, quiet (compared with gas versions), and powerful enough to get through a season of firewood or springtime tree trimming.

If the dad you’re shopping for loves to trim the trees but hates the drone of most equipment, he’ll appreciate the opportunity to ditch his heavy, gas-powered tool for something like this quiet, light, yet still very capable electric chainsaw . We’ve found that gear from Ego is strong, and this tool runs on long-lasting and fast-charging batteries (that are also compatible with other Ego tools).

Decisions made easy

Pocket Art Director II

This 20-sided die is like a Magic 8 Ball for adults, helping the user make decisions with a roll. It’s especially amusing to anyone who works in design.

One of the hardest parts of fatherhood is being responsible for making some of life’s most difficult and lasting decisions. This 20-sided die is intended to take a little pressure off professional or personal decision-making with a design that’s instantly recognizable to any self-professed geek or nerd. And isn’t being a dad the ultimate adventure in role-playing? The die is also available in Developer and Emoji editions.

A gardener’s BFF

Nisaku 7.25 in. Blade Stainless Steel Weeding Knife

The humble hori hori knife digs, cuts, saws, picks, and prods. This one has a durable, rust-resistant steel blade, a strong wood handle, and a synthetic-leather sheath.

Whether the father in your life is a regular green thumb or is just getting into gardening, the Nisaku Japanese Stainless Steel Weeding Knife will become his most treasured helper. This Japanese knife’s sharp teeth make it ideal for digging, sawing, picking, and prodding in the garden, and its stainless steel body prevents it from dulling or rusting. The knife comes with a handsome synthetic-leather sheath that allows your gift recipient to safely stow it in a pocket or apron.

Headphones of his own

Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700

These noise-cancelling headphones are lightweight and travel friendly, and they offer the most versatile active noise cancellation we’ve ever encountered in our tests.

Everyone needs to shut out the cacophony of life sometimes, but if the dad you’re shopping for is trying to put a chatty co-worker on mute or to drown out a multitude of work-from-home distractions, a pair of active noise-cancelling headphones is a godsend. The Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700 pair is our top pick and one of the best sets of noise-cancelling headphones we’ve ever tested . These headphones are lightweight and comfortable, and they can last for 20 hours between charges.

A closer look

Athlon Optics Midas ED

View birds, vistas, and other faraway things with these tough, waterproof binoculars that offer ultra-high definition 8x magnification at a much lower price than similar models.

For the dad who loves observing nature in all its detail—even from a distance—you can’t go wrong with a pair of capable binoculars to watch birds and insects from the backyard or on a hike. The Athlon Optics Midas ED binoculars, our favorite binoculars overall , are exceptional for their ability to adapt to focusing on both bright and dark subjects from afar.

A sleek turntable

U-Turn Orbit Basic Turntable

This affordable record player offers good sound quality and tons of customizable options.

Alongside punny jokes and questionable choices in sneakers , dads have a notorious propensity for waxing nostalgic about the music of their youth. A turntable like the Wirecutter-approved U-Turn Orbit Basic model, outfitted with a built-in preamp, makes it a cinch for your giftee to renew their license to ill with minimum hassle, as it delivers a tactile satisfaction that no Spotify playlist could ever deliver. This deck keeps things simple, delivering proficient noise rejection and producing a wide stereo image at a very reasonable price. Speakers , however, are sold separately.

Shake it up

Cocktail Kingdom Usagi Cobbler Shaker 500ml/17oz

This stainless, Boston-style shaker (a big cup and a small cup that fit together) can make anyone feel like a mixology pro.

A complete set of mixology tools, as described in our best barware guide , makes an elegant Father’s Day gift. But if budget dictates a more-targeted choice for crafting cocktails at home, get the father in your life a handsome and functional shaker. The no-leak strainer and all-in-one design of the Usagi Cobbler Shaker make it easy to use and nearly as simple to clean. If you’re lucky, your giftee might even fix you a drink the next time you visit.

A stone for better baking

FibraMent-D Home Oven Baking Stone

Make crisp, puffy pizzas with this all-purpose, 0.75-inch-thick baking stone that holds plenty of heat for non-soggy crusts.

The balance between the crispiness and chewiness of proper pizza is hard to reproduce at home because most residential-grade ovens cannot reach the same high temperatures that commercial ovens can. But a pizza stone can help: It stores heat better than a cookie sheet, and that concentrated heat produces crispier pizza and crustier bread. Our highest-rated pizza stone , the FibraMent stone, not only works the best but also comes in the most size options of all those we tested.

For heavy workouts

Rep Stone Sandbags

These reinforced bags can hold a variety of materials, from sand to beans, up to 125 pounds. Use them for lifting, squatting, and pressing to change up a tired workout routine.

Variety is the spice of life, and it’s also the secret to fitness, since muscles adapt quickly to routine. That’s what makes a Rep Stone Sandbag an especially effective gift for the dad who’s looking to get shredded. These heavily reinforced stitched workout bags can weigh from 25 to 125 pounds, depending on the bag’s size and what you fill it with—sand, rice, beans, or pebbles. Using them for lifting, squatting, and pressing keeps muscles challenged and fatigued.

A deceptively simple timepiece

Tian Black/White

Both timepiece and art piece, this elegant watch keeps track of time only to the nearest 15 minutes, freeing wearers from the every-second-counts grind of modern life.

Smartphones have rendered the wristwatch a bit of an anachronism these days. But if the dad you’re shopping for would appreciate being unbound from the passing of every minute, give him the monochromatic Tian Black/White wristwatch. Although this watch’s Japanese Miyota movement is precisely kept, the two-dial display is intended to slow down everyday life by expressing time in only 15-minute increments, rather than by exact seconds or minutes.

A looping laugh machine

BrandNewNoise Loopy Lou

This handmade wooden voice recorder featuring pitch control and a switch to play recordings on a loop is a children’s toy, but it can entertain kids at heart for hours, too.

If you consider your giftee to be a bit of a jokester, give one of these handmade wooden voice recorders . The father in your life is likely to be pleased as punch when he’s speaking into the built-in microphone and manipulating his voice with the device’s simple-to-use pitch control and looping capabilities. Just expect to get a few phone calls or voice messages by way of his new best friend, Lou.

Barbershop-quality clippers

Oster Fast Feed Adjustable Pivot Motor Clipper

This hair clipper is a pro-grade classic that’s ideal for a close buzz or fade, as well as frequent home touch-ups.

If the father you’re shopping for has shown interest in taking charge of his hair maintenance, get him the proper tools to hone his skills. The Oster Fast Feed clipper is a classic found in many barber shops, and it is one of the best clippers we’ve tested . Of course, there’s no guarantee that his first haircut using these clippers will come out perfect. But at least he’ll be using “extremely powerful and pleasingly quiet” clippers that are easy to adjust, shearing down the learning curve along with his mane. Just be sure to remind him to watch a few video tutorials online before he flips the switch.

A handsome apron

Williams Sonoma Classic Apron

This affordable bib apron is constructed from thick cotton and comes in a rainbow of colors.

If the dad in your life likes to cook (or likes to look like he cooks), give him the gift of a classic and comfortable apron. While we were testing aprons for our guide, this timeless model from Williams Sonoma stood out for its durable cotton construction, roomy front pockets, and long ties. Plus, it should retain its color (you have several fun hues to choose from) for years and years. For an extra $10, you can get the apron monogrammed with up to nine characters—enough to accommodate “Best Dad” or “Yes, Chef.”

Royal flush

Parks Project Minimalist National Park Playing Cards

These artistic playing cards celebrate the National Parks with pastel illustrations.

Whether the dad you’re shopping for is an avid poker player or more of a Go Fish guy, elevate his game with a set of elegant cards benefiting a great cause. These cards from Parks Project feature spare and almost poetic line drawings of some of the most famous sites from America’s national parks, including Grand Teton, Yellowstone, Yosemite, and Zion. The company gives back 5% of each sale to benefit the National Parks Conservation Association, too.

Better bread

Sugus House Oval Banneton Basket

This handmade banneton, or rattan basket for proofing dough, lends shape, structure, and a distinctive pattern to loaves. Use it with or without the included cotton liner.

You don’t need a banneton for proofing bread—any old bowl will do. But if the father in your life has recently taken to baking or is trying to up his sourdough game, the Sugus House Oval Banneton Basket makes the process feel special. And when he isn’t using it for baking, he can use it as a fruit or vegetable bowl. Just remind him that it’s not microwave safe, in case he gets any new culinary ideas.

Meaningful magnets

Inkifi Photo Magnets

Make custom photo magnets from your Instagram, desktop, or mobile photos. These sets of four or nine (depending on the size) are super strong and laminated to protect against errant kitchen splashes.

If your gift recipient is the sentimental type, they’ll love seeing you, your siblings, or their grandchildren on custom photo magnets every time they open the fridge. One of our favorite services for the job is Inkifi , through which you can easily select images from your desktop, your phone, or even your Instagram feed to convert into a four-pack of 3-by-3-inch magnets or a nine-pack of 2-by-2-inch magnets. We don’t love that shipping these little magnets costs about $10, but the experience is so easy and fast, we think it’s worth the investment.

A luxurious robe

Brooklinen Waffle Robe

This generously sized unisex waffle robe made from 100% Turkish cotton is cozy and thick but still lightweight enough for all seasons.

There are few pleasures on this planet better than padding around home in a soft robe on a lazy morning, cup of coffee in hand, no jeans or obligations in sight. The dad in your life deserves such a moment, and you can supply the uniform (even if you can’t guarantee the other elements). We tested dozens of robes , and one of our favorites for this task is Brooklinen’s Waffle Robe , which is lightweight yet plush and comes in a range of unisex sizes from XS to XL and four colors (plus a few limited-edition colors that change each season) to suit any dad on your list.

We love finding gifts that are unusual, thoughtful, and well vetted. See even more gift ideas we recommend .

According to the National Retail Association , the top gifts in 2023 will include special outings/experiences, clothing, gift cards, and electronics. 

What do most dads want for Father's Day?

Like most Americans, dads are overworked and short on time, so spending a day with their families ranked high on the list of the dads we interviewed. Experiences and homemade presents are popular, especially among Millennial dads, who prefer to do something with their families and friends in lieu of another gadget or tie. 

How can I make my Father’s Day special on a budget?

According to the National Retailers Association, consumers are expected to spend, on average, $196.23 on Father’s Day gifts, but you don’t have to.  It’s easy to make Father’s Day special on a budget. A hug, kiss, homemade card, or homemade meal or dessert are all low-cost ways to celebrate. For a few years, my kids made “coupon” books for their dad out of construction paper, offering coupons for various fun or helpful things, like a board game of his choice or helping to wash the car. Experiences on Father’s Day don’t have to be expensive. Planning a picnic, a hike, or a visit to a free zoo or museum are all affordable ways to celebrate.

Essay on Father's Day

The first superhero any child meets in their life is their father. In the growing age of children, they need someone who can be their role model. Father is the best example of a superhero. A father works tirelessly day and night for his family so that he can educate his children well and support his family. To give respect to this hard work, we celebrate Father's Day every year. On this day, we give respect and gratitude to our father.

If any child is in any trouble, the first person a child remembers is his father. This shows the importance of a father in anyone's life. Father's Day is celebrated on the 3rd Sunday of June every year throughout the world.

The Story behind Father's Day Celebration:

There are two major stories behind celebrating Father's Day. 

The first Father's Day was celebrated in America on 19 June 1910 to honor the father of Miss Sonora Smart Dooh. Sanora's father William Smart was a civil war veteran. William Smart's wife died at the time of giving birth to his sixth child. He raised his six children alone after his wife passed away. After William Smart passed away, his daughter Sanora wanted to celebrate Father's Day on June 5, on the death anniversary of her father. She believed that all of us always respect the mother's sacrifices and emotions but no one pays attention to the father's sacrifices. Not everyone understands the importance of a father in life. In order to celebrate the life and sacrifices of a father, we should celebrate Father's Day. On this day, we can tell our father how important he is in our lives. For some reasons, it was postponed to the third Sunday of June.

Origin of Celebration

According to the second story, Father's Day was celebrated for the first time in America in Fairmont, West Virginia. The day was celebrated for the first time on July 5, 1908. It was commemorated in memory of 361 men, who died in 1907 in a coal mine explosion. Father's Day was officially recognized as a national holiday in 1972 during President Nixon's reign. Since then, Father's Day is celebrated every year on the third Sunday of June.

Father's Day is celebrated on different days in different countries. In countries like India, the United States and the United Kingdom, Father's Day is celebrated on the third Sunday of June. In Argentina, Canada, France, Greece, Ireland, Mexico, Singapore, South Africa and Venezuela, Father's Day is celebrated on the third Sunday of June. Whereas in Australia and New Zealand, Father's Day is celebrated on the first Sunday of September. In Thailand, Father's Day is celebrated on 5 December; on this day the birthday of the King of Thailand is also celebrated. In Brazil, Father's Day is celebrated on the second Sunday of August.

Modes of Celebration:

Everyone has their way of celebrating Father's Day. Many people go out on this day to eat good food. On this day, children give gifts to their father, offer them greetings, and give them cards and flowers. On this day, every child honors his father and offers gratitude. 

Mother’s sacrifice is given a high position in every civilization and culture. However, the person who dedicates his whole life for the happiness of his children and his family should also get the same respect as the mother. The way we celebrate Mother's Day in honor of a Mother, similarly Father's Day is celebrated to honor Father's love.

This day is celebrated to express gratitude to the father. The father is the person who pays all his duty without expressing his grief and pain. After mother, if someone is very close to our heart, it is our father. The father's love does not look like that of the mother, but it is the father who makes us strong from inside. Our father gives us a lesson about good and bad in the world. We do not need to worry about anything as long our father’s hand is on our forehead. They always keep grief to themselves and give us happiness. We should never forget our father's struggles. We should always celebrate the sacrifice of father’s and give them respect.

The main motive of celebrating Father's Day is to remind and give special thanks to every father who has given a lot of dedication to their children. However, in children's lives, Fathers are the real role model for them, they are inspired by their father since childhood. This is celebrated on the 3rd Sunday of June every year.

Fathers’ Day Essay 800 Words

The only person I always admire in my life is my dad who I love. I still remember all my childhood memories with my dad. They are the real reason for my happiness and happiness. Because of who I was, my mother was always busy with kitchens and other household chores and these ‘dads’ celebrated with me and my sister. I think he is the best father in the world. I feel blessed to have such a father in my life. I always thank God for giving me the opportunity to be born into such a wonderful family.

He is a humble and peaceful person. They never scolded me and took all my mistakes lightly and very politely and made me see all my mistakes. He is the head of the family, and he helps all members of the family through difficult times. They share their mistakes and their successes in life to tell me. He has his own online marketing business, yet he never pressures or pulls him forward in the same field, instead he always encourages me with whatever I want to be in my life. He is a good father not only because he helps me but also because of the knowledge, the power, the helpful environment and especially in treating people fairly.

Father's Day is a day in the year when children give their father presents and gifts and one big thing, which is love. Father's Day is just one day, but what about each day of the year? Fathers' Day should be a daily occurrence because fathers are generous and do much to help their children.

Every father is a constant support system and mentor for their child. He's the one I always look up to when I find myself in trouble. My father has been leading me in all my major decisions in life. He is a hardworking and loving person. Dad loves movies. Whenever he gets time, he likes to watch an old movie. In fact, we are sometimes told who controls the television. But, deep down, we like to tease each other and play again. Dad doesn't like to do anything. Sometimes during the holidays, when he and my sister do nothing and do nothing, he gives us one job or another. And he is very organized and keeps all his papers organized.

My Dad - My Model:

Every father is a good example for his children. First of all, I commend your love of work. He is always there to help his mates, even if it is not his job. In fact, we may find him spending hours helping others. After all, my father is just a man. He does not like expensive things and lives a simple, peaceful life. Otherwise he does not scold anyone. I wonder if something is wrong with her because she takes everything in order and gives herself time to decide.

My father - My Friend:

My father is also my friend. I can talk about everything with my dad, even those who have the courage to talk in front of my mom. I know he should keep it a secret and give me the advice I need. He is the one I can count on not to see whenever I need help, and I know he will help me.

Importance of Father in Family

Father plays a vital role in the development of the family. He is actually considered the head of the family. However, I feel that fathers and mothers have a special role to play in raising their children. Although a mother is gentle, the father shows courage and strength to his children, who will later take him seriously. It may be difficult at times, but be sure to always benefit the children.

My father as a Source of Inspiration

I can proudly say that it was my father who inspired me from day one. In other words, his attitude and personality influenced me as a person. In the same way, he still has a great influence on the environment around his narrow paths. Dad spends his free time caring for the lost animals, which encourages me to do the same. All my knowledge in sports or cars comes from my father.

Conclusion:

There is no doubt that my father's role is important in my life. Your presence is important in maintaining equality and peace in my family. The father is the one who gets the bad daddy's badge and his denial of anything means a lot to the kids. I also respect my father and try to develop the qualities needed to be like him when I grow up.

Father’s Day Essay for Students in English [Easy* Words]

December 19, 2023 by Sandeep

Father’s Day Essay: Fathers are the hardest working men. They go to any extent to provide the best for their children. Father’s Day is celebrated on every 3rd Sunday of June. It’s a day to make all dads feel special and appreciate their selfless contributions towards their families. The day is mostly spent in outdoor activities or going to a short picnic. Children surprise them with gifts, cakes, cards and prepare them their favourite meals.

Essay on Father’s Day 500 Words in English

We have provided Father’s Day Essay in English, suitable for class 6, 7, 8, 9 & 10.

While growing up, every little child needs a superhero in their lives. A superhero is one person who is a role model for them. The first superhero that every child comes across in their life is a father. A father is that symbol of strength that binds the entire family together. The person who first comes to our mind whenever we are stuck in any problem is the father only, which makes the father a very pivotal element of the society and the pillar on which many rely. So to respect all their efforts, Father’s Day is celebrated on 3rd Sunday of June every year throughout the world.

History of Father’s Day

The significance of Father’s Day is celebrated on the same day as this in Catholic Europe is because Saint Joseph is believed to be the father of Jesus Christ and husband of the Virgin Mary. In the year 1907, in December, the tragic Monongah Mining disaster took place. The incident led to the tragic death of 361 men, among which 250 had children of their own. Naturally, the terrible disaster left all of these 250 kids fatherless.

A woman named Grace Golden Clayton was mourning the death of her father during the same time, and she proposed to the government that father’s day should be celebrated in order to honour the death of all the unfortunate men who used to be fathers of those children. This was how the father’s day began to be celebrated in the USA, and worldwide.

Celebrations of Father’s Day

In India, Father’s Day is celebrated all around the nation in all its pomp and glory. Father’s Day is a very personalised celebration done all over the world. Children buy gifts for their fathers and make cards to show the love, affection & respect to their fathers. On this day, several schools, colleges and other institutions arrange cultural programs and interactive sessions with the students and their fathers as well.

The television and radio telecasts various programs based on the same topic for that entire day. Even the online portals and social media get flooded with people posting pictures with their father, starting from children to adults. Although fathers should be respected and loved throughout the year, the one special day dedicated only to that man in our lives who is the pillar of our family makes the day even more splendid.

By celebrating Father’s Day, we not only celebrate fatherhood but also their indispensable impact and role in our lives. We celebrate strength, security, sacrifice and every single aspect of fatherhood that comes with it. Not only on this special day but every day we should wake up in the morning with immense gratitude towards our fathers for providing us with the life that we are living, for showering us with love and presents, for protecting us against all evils and for being our guide and support system.

Essay on Father’s Day 200 Words in English

Below we have provided a short essay on Father’s Day, suitable for class 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 school students.

Father’s Day is usually celebrated on 3rd Sunday of June every year. The significance of this day is paramount in everyone’s life. A day solely dedicated to celebrating the fatherhood in our personalised way throughout the globe. The role of a father in a child’s life is incomparable to anyone else. A father is a person who is always there for your support when you turn back, ready with a solution to every sort of problem, who takes care of all your needs & keep encouraging you throughout your life.

Father is the pillar of strength of a family which keeps the bond strong in all happy & challenging moments in life. Everyone celebrates father’s day by making all the possible things to make the specific day unique for him. Let it be making cards, flowers or by performing something exclusively for him. This year I baked a cake for my father with the help of my mom & dedicated a song for him to let him know how important he is for me. I also spent the whole day with him, trying to help him in his work & responsibilities.

In the evening we also watched his favourite movie. Also, I promised myself that day that I will always try to keep him happy & will try to share his responsibilities from that day onwards. This father’s day was one of the memorable days for me. But we all need to remember that we can’t stop by celebrating it on one day, we need to have the care & love for him throughout our life. He is a person who makes us learn how to live life; his sacrifices for us are immense. We need to make every day memorable for him as he keeps doing for us.

“The power of a dad in a child’s life is unmatched.” —Justin Ricklefs

Price: $16.99

Hoto electric screwdriver

Is dad a nonstop tinkerer? If so, Hoto’s electric screwdriver is perfect for tackling small to medium-size projects around the house or at the workbench.

Price: $53.99

Poler Elevated Camera Cooler

Fact: a photography adventure is better with some cold ones in tow. Poler's versatile bag holds a camera with a couple of lenses in its divider insert, or you can remove it and fill the insulated bag with a six-pack.

It comes in a variety of earthy tones, too, but the olive color is usually sold out since everyone wants to look like Pedro Pascal’s charming portrayal of a quick-to-murder madman. Go figure.

The Simpsons Arcade1UP

Nostalgia is a helluva drug, isn’t it? This Simpsons arcade cabinet may not be cheap, but it’s a small treasure to fans of the show and ’90s kids who remember losing many a quarter to the quintessential beat ’em up after getting destroyed on the baseball field. Some assembly is required, but that assembly also includes a matching riser and stool. Price: $699.99

Flipper Zero

An open-source wonder of a remote hacking tool, the Flipper Zero can learn and control IR devices or do other handy things, like store U2F keys for two-factor authentication. It can also do things that are less, let’s say, less wholesome than the multi-tool’s cheery, dolphin-adorned demeanor lets on. Best of all, it has a vibrant online community around it, meaning your dad should have no trouble finding clever uses for it. Price: $169

Fiskars X27 Super Splitting Axe

Prepping firewood can be a slog, but a good steel ax can make it an easier and more enjoyable experience.

The Garmin Vivomove Sport touts a mix of functionality and a touch of class, which makes it a looker of a smartwatch.

Price: $171.35

Thermapen One

Clean, simple, and efficient.

It’s also highly accurate and comes in an assortment of bold colors, making it far tougher to misplace. Price: $79.96

Carved wooden phone case

We all gotta touch grass once in a while, but with a Carved phone case, dad can feel one with nature even when stuck at a desk. The hardy phone cases — which are available for newer iPhone models and various Galaxy devices — use a mix of real wood and colorful resin to produce some vivid, one-of-a-kind designs that elevate the use of burl. Price: $59

Pinecil portable soldering iron

If your dad still uses a basic soldering iron that looks like it was bought at RadioShack to repair his electronics, it’s time for an upgrade.

Price: $25.99

Zhik’s amphibious water shoes are just as stylish as a pair of regular sneakers, allowing you to transition from casual lounging to the water without so much as a second thought.

XPower A-2 Airrow Pro Duster

With the XPower electric duster, your dad will never have to use a can of compressed air again. The gadget may have a silly-sounding name, but it’s incredibly handy when it comes to cleaning nooks, crannies, and other hard-to-reach places. Just think of all the places and things dad likes keeping tidy — his desk, his keyboard, the depths of the living room entertainment center. This thing can help with all of it. Price: $53

Aarke Carbonator 3

Home carbonation is a nice treat, but a SodaStream is mostly designed to get you paying top dollar for CO2.

And if dad is crafty, he can mod it to use all kinds of cheap food-grade CO2 tanks. Price: $199

The Elgato Stream Deck Plus offers all the functionality and customization of a standard Stream Deck but with the addition of four glorious knobs.

The concept of Father’s Day originated in the United States in the early 20th century. Sonora Smart Dodd, inspired by Mother’s Day, sought a way to honor her own father, a Civil War veteran who single-handedly raised six children after the death of his wife. The first Father’s Day was celebrated on June 19, 1910, in Spokane, Washington. It was officially recognized as a national holiday in the U.S. in 1972 when President Richard Nixon signed it into law.

The Cultural Significance of Father’s Day

Father’s Day is celebrated worldwide, albeit on different dates and with varying customs. Regardless of the cultural context, the day is meant to honor the role of fathers and the impact of their presence in children’s lives. It emphasizes the importance of paternal bonds and the influence fathers have on society.

In many cultures, fathers are seen as protectors, providers, and pillars of strength. They often play a crucial role in the moral, emotional, and intellectual development of their children. Father’s Day serves as a reminder to celebrate and value these contributions.

Fathers in Modern Society

In contemporary society, the role of the father has evolved significantly. Today, fathers are more involved in their children’s upbringing than ever before. They share responsibilities with mothers, breaking free from traditional gender roles. This shift is reflected in the way Father’s Day is celebrated, with emphasis not just on the father as a provider but also as a nurturer, supporter, and friend.

Celebrating Father’s Day

Celebrations of Father’s Day vary greatly. Some families opt for traditional gifts like ties or tools, while others prefer personalized presents that reflect their father’s unique interests. Many celebrate the day by spending quality time together, participating in activities that the father enjoys.

In an academic context, Father’s Day can be an opportunity to reflect on societal roles, family dynamics, and personal relationships. It can also serve as a prompt for discussions about gender equality, the shifting roles of parents, and the importance of recognizing and appreciating all forms of caregiving.

Father’s Day is more than just a day of gift-giving. It’s a day to honor the men who have shaped our lives, to express gratitude for their love and sacrifices, and to acknowledge the crucial role they play in our society. As we celebrate Father’s Day, let us remember to appreciate not just our own fathers, but all fathers around the world for their invaluable contributions.

Father’s Day is a special day observed throughout the world to honor and appreciate the important role that fathers play in our lives. It is a time to thank them for their love, support, advice, and sacrifices. Father’s Day is a sincere tribute to the unsung heroes who have impacted our lives and helped us grow and develop.

Father’s Day can be traced back to the early twentieth century. The success of Mother’s Day, which had gained worldwide awareness, prompted the notion of dedicating a day to fathers. In 1909, Sonora Smart Dodd, a devout daughter from Spokane, Washington, established a day to honor fathers. She wished to convey her gratitude to her father, who had raised her and her siblings alone after their mother died. Dodd’s efforts were rewarded on June 19, 1910, when Spokane celebrated the inaugural Father’s Day.

Since then, Father’s Day has become an annual event celebrated on various dates around the world. It is observed on the third Sunday of June in most countries. On this day, children of all ages honor their fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, and other paternal figures who have had an impact on their lives.

Father’s Day is about more than just exchanging gifts or greeting cards. It is an opportunity to focus on the immense impact that fathers make on the lives of their children. Fathers are the pillars of our families, offering stability, support, and strength. They act as role models, imparting in us vital values and life lessons, as well as a sense of duty and resilience.

The love of a father is generally silent and unselfish, manifested by his acts rather than his words. He works tirelessly to provide for his family, making sure their necessities are satisfied and their aspirations come true. Working long hours, forsaking personal ambitions, or making difficult decisions, fathers prioritize the well-being of their families over their own.

Fathers are equally important in developing their children’s personalities and guiding them through life’s problems. They are there to extend a helping hand, provide advice, and listen. The presence and involvement of a father in a child’s life benefit their emotional well-being and general development. He fosters a sense of comfort and belonging through instilling confidence, encouraging curiosity, and celebrating accomplishments.

Father’s Day is an occasion to recognize and appreciate these priceless contributions. It is a day to express our love and thanks, to say “thank you” for fathers’ constant support, innumerable sacrifices, and unconditional affection. It is a time to make memories that will last a lifetime and deepen the link between fathers and their children.

On Father’s Day, families gather to commemorate this momentous occasion. They may organize outings, cook special meals, or participate in activities that fathers like. It is a time for reminiscing , laughing, and creating new memories to cherish.

In addition to honoring individual fathers, Father’s Day recognizes and honors parenthood as a whole. It’s a chance to raise awareness about the value of involved and caring fathers in society. We may promote excellent parenting and urge fathers to remain actively involved in their children’s lives by emphasizing the importance of fatherhood.

Finally, Father’s Day is a moment to recognize and thank fathers for their enduring love, support, and dedication. It is a day to reflect on how much they have influenced our lives and to express gratitude for their sacrifices.

Let us cherish and celebrate our fathers throughout the year, not just on this special day, to recognize the vital role they play in molding our lives and the world around us.

Essay on Father's Day

Members of a family – the father, the mother, siblings – make an indispensable part of each other’s lives. For the children, we celebrate Children's Day. For the mothers, we celebrate Mothers’ Day, and for the fathers, we celebrate Father’s Day.

Across the world, father’s day is celebrated on the third Sunday of June every year. This day is marked by the family’s acknowledgement of the father’s sacrifices and support throughout the years. Below are sample essays on Fathers’ Day.

100 Word Essay On Fathers’ Day

Celebrated on the third Sunday of June of every year, Fathers’ Day is a day set aside to celebrate the contributions of a father in our lives. Fathers are the first male figure a child encounters. The epitome of strength and support, his sacrifices always get ignored in the face of our mothers’. My father is the kindest, yet the strongest, person I have ever met. He laughs with our family, guides us, and is always there to support us. I love spending time with my father. On every Father's day, I make him a card from scratch and make sure to let him know how important he is to me.

200 Word Essay On Fathers’s Day

It is a father and a mother who make a family, and though the mother’s sacrifices are always lauded, the father falls back in the shadows. Thus, every year on the third Sunday of June, the whole world comes together to pay respect to their fathers, acknowledging their huge roles in our lives.

My Father’s Role In My Life | My father has an equally indispensable role in my life. He is the strongest, kindest, and most jovial person I know. He has always stood like a pillar for me. Come what may, I know if I am going through a hard time, I can always reach up to my father. He has always been there through thick and thin, guiding me and making sure I develop into a strong, independent adult. To tell you a not-so-secret secret, I have always admired.

How I Celebrate | Every year on Fathers’ Day, I greet my father with a handmade card and we spend the day together chit-chatting and dining out. I have always loved these times. Getting to spend time with family is my favourite thing to do. Guess I get it from my father. I hope that someday I can adopt his ideals to the fullest and be like him.

500 Word Essay On Fathers’ Day

I was quite young when I discovered Fathers’ Day. I once found myself wondering that we always celebrate Mother’s day, but what about the father? This is probably the thought which had gone through the mind of Sonora Smart Dooh, who proposed the idea of celebrating father’s day for the first time. Usually, all around the world, mothers are the fore figures of nurturing and therefore, assume a higher status than a father. But fathers are no less indispensable. In fact, it is he who gives the family their much-needed support, guidance, and protection.

In order to acknowledge fathers for their years of sacrifice and contribution, the world comes together on the third Sunday of June to pay honour to their fathers. Different countries celebrate it on different days and depending on which country it is, the father’s day landscape can be pretty variant.

How The Idea Came

Now celebrated with great pomp and show, Fathers’ Day used to be a foreign concept to India. Allotting a day to acknowledge the role of a father in one’s life was unfathomable. This happened because India always had a tradition of recognising our parents’ contributions. From Ramayana to the Mahabharata to Vedas, every scripture talks about the ultimate respect for one’s own parents. But, as the country westernised, the concept was reduced to a single day and is now being credited to the West.

My Bond With My Father

Every year on the third Sunday of June, I greet my father with a handmade card. I work all night, just to see him smile his widest smile. At that moment, I can see how proud he is of me. It is always like this with Indian fathers. They never tell you how proud they are of you, but you’ll know if you observe enough.

His Best Qualities | My father is a typical father you’ll find in every Indian family. Nonetheless, he is all the more special to me. He is kind, compassionate, benevolent, and yet so strong. I have always admired him for his resilience, his ability to think clearly even in the worst situations, and for always making his family his priority.

My ‘Go-To’ Person | My father has always been a great pillar of support for me. Whenever I am stuck in a difficult situation, he sits me down and has a discussion with me till we reach a solution. Although on regular days, he is the well-organised disciplinarian who needs everything crisp, I know he is the person I can go to when the going gets tough.

Sacrificing His Own Dreams | My father has made immense sacrifices for the family. At times as much as my mother did, and at times more than her. Putting all his dreams and desires on the sideline so that his child and family can live the life of their dreams is probably the greatest thing my father did for us.

I aspire to be like him someday. Someday, when I grow up, I want to become a headstrong yet kind-hearted person like him. A person who can protect others and also cry with them. A person who can always put the needs of his family before his.

Thoughtful and personalized presents he'll appreciate even if he says he has everything.

We've been independently researching and testing products for over 120 years. If you buy through our links, we may earn a commission. Learn more about our review process.

If your Grandpa is one of those dads who feel like they have everything they could ever want — let's prove him wrong! Is your grandfather into golf? Well, we have some golf-themed items he'll never want to stop using (like the golf ball drink chillers). Looking for something to customize so he knows it really comes from the heart? Well, our personalized presents are as cute as they are practical (take the personalized cutting board as one of the coolest picks). Even better, many of these Grandpa-approved gifts are popular and best-selling gifts on Amazon, all while being suitable for a range of budgets (aka gifts under $50 ).

So, don't let your siblings win Grandpa's heart without you having a chance to compete (although we know he loves you all equally!). These gifts for Grandpa will surely melt his heart. Cue the happy tears!

Carhartt Men's Loose Fit Heavyweight Short-Sleeve Pocket T-Shirt

For the grandpa who likes the simple things, a comfortable but stylish t-shirt, available in over 25 different colors, that he can watch TV in, do yard work in and heck, even sleep in will easily win a smile of approval.

ZUYUROU "Grandpa’s Spot" Throw Pillow Covers

The only thing that ruins his peaceful TV time is when he has to spend time trying to find that darn remote that keeps going missing or his glasses — even though he swears he doesn't need them to see the screen! He can just pop these pillow covers over any throw pillow he has and viola. The only thing that might make it better? An attached cupholder for a nice cold beer.

Slim Wallet with Money Clip

Grandpa has probably been carrying around the same bulky wallet for years. Give him an upgrade that doesn't just look and feel good, but also features RFID-blocking for protection.

I'm Not Sleeping Just Resting My Eyes Socks

Grandpas, no matter what age, love to put their feet up and relax, so he'll definitely get a good laugh out of this gift. It's small, but cute.

399 Games, Puzzles & Trivia Challenges Specially Designed to Keep Your Brain Young

Help Grandpa stay sharp with his book that features puzzles that will work his long- and short-term memory, in addition to other things like keeping his attention to detail on-point.

Stanley Transit Trigger-Action Travel Mug

You want the Quencher, but Grandpa wants something a little less trendy. Luckily, Stanley makes this best-selling travel mug that is leak-proof and insulated to keep his drink hot or cold. Plus, it's half the price of the Quencher!

Password Book

This was a top-seller during Mother's Day, and we expect the same for Father's Day. He can write down all of his passwords, usernames and account information in one safe place and off the internet.

Custom History Of Golf Book

If grandpa's favorite thing is practicing his swing or just watching golf, he'll love this customized history book. It can also be personalized with his name on the cover for an extra special touch.

Sleep Aid Device

If Grandpa struggles to sleep at night, this easy-to-use light is just what he needs. He can tap the device to choose the eight- or 20-minute mode, where he'll relax by synchronizing his breath with the projected blue light. This creates the feeling of fatigue, helping to calm his mind and body to prepare it for Zzz's.

To make his life easier, gift this three-in-one charging station to corral his devices and keep them charged. Even better, the charger works for most iPhones and Androids.

Plus, they're breathable, with customers mentioning that the open-back design helps prevent sweat.

Wireless Smart Meat Thermometer

Described as the world's first truly wireless meat thermometer, Meater Plus allows iPhone and Android users to monitor the cooking progress of meat using their free app. It's a tiny yet useful gift that will save Grandpa time and stress as he checks to make sure his hamburgers and steaks are fully cooked.

Traditional Plaid Long-Sleeve Shirt

If his favorite flannel shirt is due for an upgrade, here's the perfect pick to complete his wardrobe. This flannel has a corduroy-lined collar and cuffs, a double-pleat back and button-close pockets for easy movement, trouble-free hanging and a comfortable feel.

Toilet Night Lights

Grandpa may not think he needs this, but trust us, he just might! On those late-night runs to the bathroom, he won't have to turn on the lights. Instead, these toilet night lights are motion-activated and feature 16 fun colors he can put on rotation.

Car Vacuum Cleaner

Cars are practically our second homes, and if Grandpa drives, cleaning his vehicle may be a hassle as he gets older. Make the process a breeze with this lightweight and compact car vacuum. The purchase comes with three attachments (a flathead, extendable and brush nozzle), along with a carry bag, filter brush and a spare HEPA filter. He can say goodbye to debris and hard-to-reach crumbs!

Magnetic Pickup Tool

Featuring an extendable stem, flexible neck and magnetic pieces, this pickup tool will provide light in those deep or tight-to-reach places that Handyman Grandpa can't get to (think inside the oven or under his car seats). It's even designed to be shatterproof and water-resistant.

Mother's Day 2024 is coming soon, which means it's time to plan the perfect celebration for the moms in your life. From your own mom, who stayed up late while you finished homework, to the mother of your children, Mother's Day is the time to let all the moms in your life know how deeply appreciated they are.

If yours is the kind of mom who says "just get me a card" year after year, we suggest Mother's Day be the one time you don't heed Mom's advice. Sure, she'd be fine with a card, but Mom deserves so much more. That starts with you getting organized for Mother's Day 2024. Keep reading for everything you need to know to celebrate Mom this Mother's Day.

Mother's Day 2024 is Sunday, May 12, 2024.

What's the most popular Mother's Day gift?

Sending flowers to mom is one of the most popular Mother's Day gifts. Jewelry, clothes and beauty products are all terrific gift options for Mother's Day. What she really wants is time with her kids, but a gift helps make her day even more special. 

The best Mother's Day gift ideas

Moms rarely ask for anything, which is even more reason to gift your mother or wife something terrific this Mother's Day. From flowers to jewelry to a killer beauty haul, Mom deserves the very best this year. Check out some of our picks for the best Mother's Day gifts .

Pottery Barn personalized picture frame

We think the best gifts are often those that are personalized to the recipient. That's why we love this personalized picture frame from Pottery Barn.  

Constructed from aluminum alloy and velvet with a brass or silver finish, this stunning picture frame can be engraved with a sweet message dedicated to Mom. The frame fits a 5" x 7" photo.

Available at Pottery Barn, this frame costs $59. Add a monogram or name for $11.

Brook & York Avery birthstone initial necklace

If you're looking for a sure thing of a gift for a new mom , look no further than personalized jewelry that represents her baby's birthstone or initial. Brook & York's Avery 14k gold-plated birthstone initial necklace measures 18 inches and features a cubic zirconia charm, hinge closure and an anti-tarnish barrier so her new bling always stays shiny.

This personalized necklace is $140 at Brook & York. The price includes free shipping.

Mark & Graham ribbon scalloped raffia tote

Get personal this Mother's Day with a personalized tote from Mark & Graham. The raffia tote features cloth handles that level up this bag from a functional tote to a stylish accessory. Terrific for vacation travel , a morning spent at the gym, a beach day or as the ultimate carry all while she's getting the kids where they need to go, this tote can be customized with an initial or monogram (up to three letters).

This bag is priced at $99 at Mark & Graham, plus $12.50 for personalization. Orders take seven to ten days, but we suggest ordering at least two weeks in advance to get this Mother's Day gift shipped on time.

Shark heated comb + blow dyer brush with heat-resistant storage bag

Hey, Dyson. There's a new kid in town and its name is Shark. Less expensive than the Dyson Air Wrap and suitable for more hair types (in our humble opinion), the celebrity-loved Shark heated comb and blow dryer brush volumizes and styles hair, all in one handy tool.

Refresh bedhead, do a quick style change or elevate a ponytail with the Shark heated brush. Expect buttery soft waves and finished ends. 

This 4.1-star rated beauty tool can be purchased for Mother's Day at Amazon for $120. It comes with a heat-resistant storage bag.

BaubleBar classic 18k gold custom medallion necklace

Customize this 18k gold medallion necklace for mom with her initials or her kids' initials. Add anywhere from two to four letters to this pendant, which features a cubic zirconia border and a cubic zirconia stone at the center.

This pendant is constructed from 18K gold-plated sterling silver. It can be customized at BaubleBar for $158.        

'Thank You, Mom' candle by Homesick Candles

The combined scents of bergamot, lavender and sage create a whole lot of thank you. 

Homesick's candles are made in small batches and feature clever themes with a coordinating scent. The brand's Mother's Day candle, available at Amazon, combines the scent of fresh-cut flowers and the smell of breakfast cooking in the kitchen. The scent includes jasmine, sandalwood and lily.

Homesick's Mother's Day candle is $38.

What kind of flowers do people gift for Mother's Day?

Did you know the official flower of Mother's Day is the white carnation? That's because white carnations are said to symbolize motherhood.  And while a bouquet of carnations is undoubtedly lovely, we can't think of a mom who'd complain about receiving gorgeous roses or peonies.

Check out our guide to the best online flower delivery services  to find the perfect option for Mom.

Gift eternal roses from The Million Roses

Elevate Mother's Day flowers from a temporary gift to one that becomes a statement gift for months and years to come.

Starting as low as $69, The Million Roses creates elegant gift boxes filled with long-lasting roses. The Million Roses flowers go through a special treatment process that allows them to keep their fresh-cut appearance for up to three years. They require no watering or special treatment. The stylish box comes in suede, metallic or other options.

We love the single long-lasting rose in a limited-edition box -- the spring colors are perfect for Mom. It's a clever gift that won't break the bank.

The Million Roses offers free Mother's Day delivery, but order now -- delivery slots will fill up.

Who started Mother's Day?

In 1908, three years after her own mother's death, social activist  Anna Jarvis  led a movement to commemorate mothers and create a Mother's Day. Jarvis held a memorial to commemorate her mother and all the mothers of Andrews Methodist Episcopal Church in her hometown of Grafton, WV. In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson signed a bill making Jarvis' Mother's Day a national holiday.

Grammar sleuths are quick to note that Mother's Day celebrates mom in the singular not plural (that's Mother's Day, not Mothers' Day). That dates back to Jarvis, who wanted the holiday to be that of children celebrating their own mothers, not the concept of motherhood in general.

When is Father's Day 2024

Don't worry Dad, we won't forget you. Father's Day 2024 is Sunday, June 16, 2024.
