What is the origin of father's day in 2017

4hw.org: the annual father's Day is coming soon. Although father's Day is not from China, it's a good choice to express love and send a holiday blessing to the father who has worked hard all his life. Many little friends don't know what month father's Day is. Let's have a look at it together!

The third Sunday in June is father's day. Like mother's day, father's Day originated in the United States. In 1909, a woman named dorwood spread "mother's Day" in Washington D.C. In the meantime, she thought of her father. When she was very young, her mother died, and her father had to bear the burden of raising her children alone.

The scenes of the past came to her again. Ms. dowood deeply felt the need for a father's day. Her appeal to the society aroused a positive response. The third Sunday in June was chosen as father's day. In June 1910, the United States celebrated the first 'father's Day'. At that time, all the people whose father was still alive wore a red rose on their chest to show their respect for their father, while those whose father died wore a white rose to show their infinite memory and grief for their father.

In 1927, Calvin & middot; Coolidge's office of President endorsed the festival. Since then, father's day has been known and passed down by more and more people.
