Father's Day is just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate it than by highlighting what our dads really teach us.
A recent survey by Not Your Father's Root Beer has given us some interesting insights into the top skills that dads pass on to their children. From basic life skills like riding a bike, changing a tire, and driving to more complex ones like decision-making, leadership, and money management, dads have a lot to offer.
According to the survey, 30% of people say that their father taught them how to cook. I wish my husband had any idea how to cook anything other than corndogs and hot pockets (no shade). 25% of millennials say their father taught them how to clean. This may not seem like a glamorous skill, but it is an essential one and your spouse will thank Dad. Knowing how to keep your living space clean is a sign of maturity but also contributes to maintaining good physical and mental health. I will say my husband is the CLEAN one and it has rubbed off on the kids thank God.
Another crucial skill that fathers teach their children is money management. 13% of the survey's respondents said that their fathers taught them how to manage their finances. As we know, money management is one of the most critical skills to have in life. Knowing how to budget, save, invest, and spend wisely can help us stay financially stable and achieve our goals.
The survey also highlighted the top skills that dads pass on to their children. Like how to ride a bike, drive a car, repair and maintenance, decision-making skills, leadership, reading a map, and cooking. These skills are not only practical but also essential for personal growth and development.
Happy Father's to all of them out there. Thank you for what you do :)

Happy Father’s Day: Where To Celebrate Dad In Vegas
Happy Father's Day to all of the dads, fathers, father figures, moms who played dads and the heroes in your life. Father figures help shape us into the person we are today with their love, advice and guidance.
Dads protect us from harms ways while allowing us to venture off onto our own journeys to live and learn. We appreciate our heroes for killing those pesky spiders, picking us up from school and teaching us how to ride a bike.
We appreciate all of the dads out there who give time and care in raising their kids. We acknowledge the superhero dads who may be raising kids alone or raising their spouse's children.
Father figures may also be people in our community who we look up to for advice whether that be a teacher, boss and/or neighbor. Anne Geddes once said, "Any man can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a dad."
We appreciate t.v. father figures from reality shows like Danny Tanner from Full House and Uncle Phil from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, who gave guidance on what great parenting looks like.
Fathers set the example of what a good role model should be for their child. Kids learn from their dad the precedent in how to treat one another and what qualities to look for in a potential spouse.
Fathers set the standard on how generations to come will acknowledge their own identity and family name. We want to honor dad this holiday season for all that he has done for his family, friends and community.
Our digital department scouted the Las Vegas community to find the best deals to enjoy during Father's Day Weekend.
