History

The origin of Father's Day in Peru mirrors the broader history of the holiday, which began in the early 20th century in the United States. It was first conceptualized by Sonora Smart Dodd, who wanted to establish a day to honor fathers like her own, a Civil War veteran who raised six children as a single parent. The idea gradually spread across the globe, with Peru adopting the tradition.

On Father's Day, Peruvian families typically gather to celebrate with special meals that often include traditional dishes such as ceviche or grilled meats. It is common for children to give handmade gifts or cards expressing their love and gratitude. Additionally, some families may attend church services where fathers receive blessings.

  • Recreational outings: Families might go on trips or engage in outdoor activities like picnics, beach visits, or sports events.
