It’s that time of year where we celebrate the most important men in our lives: our fathers. The relationship we have with our parents is the first relationship any of us has. We learn to trust people because of our dads. We learn how to ride a bike and change a tire because of our dads. And we learn that no matter what, whether it’s a broken heart, failing out of school, or not knowing what to do with our lives, our dads will always be there with wisdom, and some laughter. Tomorrow is Father’s Day, so make sure that you tell your dad how important he is to you. Until then, check out all of these guys that deserve a gold star for their epic dad skills!

#1. You don’t have to go without when your dad’s around.

This little girl couldn’t make it to the playground, so her dad brought the playground to her. Who needs a swingset when you have a perfect good dad?

#2. If you’re a parent, then you understand how hard it is to keep children still during pictures.

This newborn had no desire to take pictures for her mama. All she needed was her dad and she was ready for her closeup.

#3. This dad was not afraid of the big bad wolf.

In fact, he was perfectly fine with being Little Red Riding Hood for his child. What a good sport, dad!

#4. This dad peeled his daughter an orange every single day for school since kindergarten.

Until her last day, when he sent her to school with this instead. That’s definitely a wake-up call.

#5. Being a dad means having to deal with all of the girly stuff you’ve never encountered before.

But a good dad will have no issues with sporting a new hairstyle. As long as it makes his little girl happy, he’ll do it with a smile.

#6. Everyone knows that dads are the strongest people on the planet.

They can leap over tall buildings, and lift cars off of people who are trapped. Well, not really, but dads sure are the closest things to superheros that we have!

#7. There’s nothing better than getting your nails painted by your little girl.

Or maybe he’s just so consumed by the game that he doesn’t even know what’s happening. Either way, that’s one happy little girl.

#8. Dads teach us the importance of taking care of our health.

This dad believes that teaching them as young as possible is the way to go. That little one has pretty good form to be completely honest.

#9. If you’ve never been invited to a tea party then you’re not a dad.

Kids absolutely love having tea with their dads. There’s nothing quite like pretending to sip tea and talking over fake biscuits with your child. Don’t forget: pinky up!

#10. One of the best things about dads is the amazing stories they tell.

This dad saw the perfect opportunity to read a story and ran with it. That’s definitely one way to keep a child distracted while on public transportation.

#11. A lot of people get their athletic ability from their dads.

This little girl was meant to be in the water from the moment she was born. And her dad wasted no time getting her on a surfboard.

#12. If you don’t wear pretty bows in your hair, then you’re not doing it right.

This father may not seem excited that he has a bow in his hair, but at least he did it. And he looks amazing with it to be completely honest.

#13. There’s more to taking a bath than just getting cleaned up when dad’s doing it.

Bathtime with dad means bubble beards and bubble hair. And check out those bubble eyebrows! Looking good kid!

#14. As a mother, this would make me a nervous wreck.

Dads have their own of way of doing things, though. So it’s best to just walk away than to interfere with their fun.

#15. Dads take watching the kids to a whole new level.

His ingenuity is pretty remarkable, and his daughter doesn’t seem to mind at all. As long as she’s getting to swing it’s alright.

#16. The most important job a father has is teaching a boy how to be a good man.

And it starts by showing them how to change a tire. This father was encouraging his son the whole time and telling him was doing a great job. That’s how it’s done, gentleman.

#17. This dad put everything he had into the perfect costume.

The costume idea was taken from a computer game the dad played in high school. He started designing it as soon as his wife became pregnant, using all of the baby boxes. This dad has leveled up in the costume making game.

#18. We understand the game, and the beer, and the Oreos.

But what’s up with the pool and the towel? It’s a great way to celebrate Father’s Day, we’re not denying that. We’re just unsure why he’s sitting in an empty kiddie pool.
