Fathers Day was celebrated on June 15, and many Starchild readers made it a special day for their dads.
Some children surprised their fathers with handmade cards, while others wrote heartfelt messages or drew pictures to show their love.
A few lucky dads even got breakfast in bed, prepared with help from mum, of course! Whether it was toast with jam, eggs or dad’s favourite cup of coffee, the small gestures meant a lot.
Here is the second batch of letters from Starchild readers on the topic, Happy Fathers Day.
“My dad is the strongest, kindest and most helpful man. He makes me laugh each time we talk. I love you, Daddy! Happy Fathers Day,” says Ngeoh Yue Qi, seven.
Six-year-old Carlyn Chieng Xin Qing writes: “Papa, thank you for always taking care of me. I love going on walks with you and hearing your stories. You are the best papa in the world!”
“For Fathers Day, my sister and I made a video for our dad. We said ‘Happy Fathers Day’ in funny voices and added pictures of our family trips. He was so happy. My mother cooked his favourite dinner, roast chicken. I am lucky to have a dad who always supports me in everything I do,” says Erica Sophia, 12.
Adam Faiz, 12, says: “This year on Fathers Day, I made a handmade card for my father. My dad always helps me with Math homework and teaches me to be brave. I love him very much.”
