Bài 3 - Father’s Day

The United States is one of the few countries in the world that have Father’s Day. It is the third Sunday in June. On this day, fathers across the country are given presents, asked for dinner or made something special.

People are not clear about the origin of Father’s Day. Some say that it began in West Virginia in 1908. Others say the first Father’s Day was held in Vancouver, Washington.

On this day children make special meals, or visit their fathers if they live apart. When children can’t visit their fathers or take them out for dinner, they send them a greeting card.

On the greeting card they write something funny to make their fathers laugh or they give thanks to their fathers for always being by their side.
In Vietnam, Father’s Day is not popular. Few people know about it.
