We celebrate with breakfast in bed, with barbecue at home, with a present (a watch, a mobile phone, a jacket, a suitcase, cigars, a belt, a wallet, a t-shirt, a pair of trainers, a perfume, etc.)Flowers are not a very common gift for fathers in Argentina. We also go to an amusement park, the cinema or the museum with dad.
