Father's Day is a day to celebrate and give dads the maximum boost all year long. This means we have even more reasons to congratulate our beloved dads. Although we've only been celebrating this day for a short time, it has its origins in the distant past. Indeed, this international tradition is commercially recent but religiously ancient.
Let's make this holiday an opportunity to express our love to our fathers together ! It's time to decide which gift to choose to complement the feelings expressed. As a 3- or 4-year-old might say: what to please Dad on this day? I'm going to offer you a selection of unusual gift ideas to give Dad, don't worry.
But first, let's start with some key Father's Day ideas because a little culture never hurts.
Father's Day in France
The next holiday dedicated to fathers echoes Mother's Day, officially registered in France since 1950. Father's Day was created later in 1952, but unlike Mother's Day, it was not made official. The holiday has taken its place on calendars and is celebrated annually, but as a formal holiday in France.
When is Father's Day?
Every year you ask yourself this same question, right? When is Father's Day? No need to look at your calendar , I'll give you the info.
In France and Quebec , Father's Day 2021 will fall this year on Sunday, June 20, the third Sunday. If you're the type to anticipate a lot, know that Father's Day 2022 will be on Sunday, June 19!
Father's Day 2021 in Belgium will be on the 2nd Sunday of June, that is to say Sunday, June 13 and in 2022 it will fall on Sunday, June 12.
Father's Day 2021 in Switzerland will be on the 1st Sunday of June and will fall on Sunday, June 6, 2021 and Sunday, June 5, 2022.
Father's Day 2021 in Luxembourg falls on the first Sunday in October, namely Sunday, October 3. In 2022, it will be Sunday, October 2.
I had to clarify all these dates because I know my French-speaking readers come from different countries. Everyone celebrates their dads after all. 😇
Christian origins of the holiday
In Catholic countries, Father's Day has been celebrated since the Middle Ages on March 19, the day of Saint Joseph, Jesus' adoptive father. This date has since remained in some traditionally Catholic countries, such as Portugal, Spain, Italy, and Latin America. You'll see for yourself that the date varies greatly depending on the country where it is celebrated.

Father's Day is a great reason to say thank you and I love you to Dad and show him respect for his love.
No matter where you live, dads everywhere have a day dedicated to them, even if these days fall on different dates and are celebrated differently. At the same time, families around the world are facing the same dilemma: what to do for Father's Day and what gifts to give?
Creating something unique and personal instead of giving the usual gifts like ties, watches, perfume, aftershave, or razors is easier than it seems. Even easier if other family members can help you. We'll see about that together in a bit.
If you want to avoid the fake smile from the dad who pretends to appreciate his gift, follow my tips to make Father's Day exciting and unforgettable for your dad. So make sure his dry cleaning doesn't look like this photo! 😉
I would also like to point out right now that I will not be giving DIY tutorials for making a noodle necklace or an ashtray! 😂
Father's Day Gift 🎁
For the dad who loves drinks like beer , we have products that will make a unique gift he won't expect. So you'll have a great time giving it to him!
It may seem unusual, but in France, drink accessories are the most popular gifts for Father's Day , which falls on the third Sunday in June. This is a change from the traditional gifts I mentioned earlier. A fresh, original, and sustainable Father's Day gift idea can be a personalized accessory . Here are some examples:
- A magnetic target for bottle caps (beer or other). Not only will this game amuse him, but it could also be an opportunity to play as a family and trigger bursts of laughter! To find this target, click here
- A Thanos glove-shaped bottle opener for a dad who's a Marvel and Avengers fan. It'll be a small wink, but he'll appreciate it. To find this bottle opener, click here.
- A Viking tankard is also a perfect gift for men and a change from high-tech gadgets! If dad is a Viking fan, he will be delighted! To find this tankard, click here.
Personalized gifts are ideal because they show the care you put into choosing them, rather than just giving standard gifts. It's the thought that counts, as they say. 😊
No matter what you're giving, mugs or personalized accessories , place them in the center of the table during breakfast with coffee, tea, and fresh orange juice. Younger members of the family can help decorate the table by scattering candy around it to start the day off right.
If the gift you choose is for a beer-loving dad, he'll wait a bit before pouring himself a beer from the beer mug you gave him, na! Give him a gift from the heart because, as they say, it's the thought that counts!
Father's Day Gift: Homemade Breakfast
Another unique Father's Day gift idea is a wonderful homemade breakfast that will melt any dad's heart.
Children can help set the table for breakfast, they can also very well help organize breakfast on a pretty tray to surprise dad with a delicious breakfast in bed!
Sweet or savory for Father's Day? Obviously, it depends on his personal tastes.
Fathers will be delighted to discover their favorite brownie or pastry in the morning, especially if it's homemade. What better way to please a doting father, right? And don't forget to include a unique gift !
For a spicy breakfast , you can prepare boiled eggs, toast, or savory pastries and serve them with orange juice. Mom's help in the kitchen will be even better and will make her very happy.
Of course, you can also go and buy a baguette with pastries like croissants or pain au chocolat, but you know his tastes better than me!
To make the surprise even more special, don't forget a handwritten letter, a Father's Day poem, or a drawing as a small gift. It will be the finishing touch to this celebration!
Father's Day Gift: Best Dad Award
In Victoria, Australia, on the first Sunday in September, the Junior Christian Association of Victoria selects the "Local Father of the Year" in 32 municipalities across the state. Holding such a competition isn't a bad idea, but you can, of course, reward a dad without entering the contest! At least he's guaranteed to win our doting dad!
There are many ways to create a " World's Best Dad " certificate. Here's an easy Father's Day craft idea: choose your best family photos to create a collage. Use cardboard as a base, glue the photo to the sides, and decorate the center of the card with a special dedication or signature using bright colors. Kids can also participate, as their little hands and fingers can be very useful. This will also be an opportunity for a family decorating workshop.
You can present it with a rolled-up certificate tied with a ribbon, or even frame the certificate for a cute little unforgettable gift! This is definitely a handmade Father's Day gift idea that's very simple to make. If he's a DIY dad , he'll appreciate it even more, especially if everyone pitched in.

You also have the right to let go by choosing a humorous Father's Day gift , it will allow him to remember it every time he wears it.
