The celebration of Father’s Day originates in the Middle Ages, through a Christian celebration dedicated to Joseph, father of Jesus. For this reason, in many Catholic countries, Father’s Day is celebrated on March 19, the day of Saint Joseph. The Father’s Day in Mexico is celebrated on the third Sunday of the month of June, and began to celebrate this day from the 1950s.

Father’s Day in Mexico is usually a day spent with the family. Usually, a big party is included in the morning with traditional homemade breakfast and the favorite dishes of the father are prepared. Father’s Day lunch in Mexico often ends with traditional Mexican chocolates or sweet bread.
