Family members can have a chance to get together to enhance family traditions. It will be also a day to bring family members closer. We should celebrate it on the first Sunday in August. Because it’s a day off and everyone is free from work and study. It’s a good idea to have a party with all family members in a restaurant or at home. We should give our fathers some beautiful flowers, greeting cards and special gifts which they like. And we should serve them the food they like best. I believe the idea will be supported and the day will be celebrated nationwide because everybody loves their fathers and wants them to be happy. Suggested writing:
