FATHER´S DAY

 

In Spain, Father's Day is celebrated every March 19 to coincide with  Saint Joseph's Day, which as you may already know is about the father of Jesus, so that in some way the figure of this father is linked with that of all parents in the world, but what originated this party or celebration? In 1948 it was decided to commemorate Father's Day in Spain for the first time, completely linked to the history of a woman and a school. Manuela Vicente Ferrero, a teacher by profession, decided to celebrate this day with her students at the Belmonte  school, located in Madrid's Dehesa de la Villa. In Spain it is a tradition on Father's Day to meet as a family with parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, and give them a present that symbolizes our love for them. In schools, children often make crafts to give to dad.
