Being a father can be a tough job. But like most tough jobs, if you have some fun while doing it, it can be extremely rewarding. This slideshow is honoring all of the awesome dads out there who are going above and beyond when it comes to their dad-duties. If you’re a father, or just appreciate hard-working dads who like to have some fun, you should check out this list of 60 guys who can’t enough of being a father and be sure to share it with a friend!
1. First Day Of School
The first day of school is a big deal. Usually, it’s the child that has some reservations about leaving home all day and spending time with new people. But as we can see, it can be hard for the dads out there, too.
2. Alone At The Office
When you’re working at the office all alone, things can get pretty boring. This dad decided to spice up the day a bit by making this picture of himself in all of the cubicles. Imagine all of the work he’ll be able to get down now.
3. Mer-dad
When you have a daughter, you do things to make her happy. This little girl wanted to take a picture in the river dressed as a mermaid. So dad decided to join in on the fun.
4. Dog Hat
It usually takes parents a bit longer to figure out how to use new technology. This dad finally learned how to use the front camera on his phone. He snapped this winning shot and sent it to his kid.
5. Come On, Coach
When your dad is also your coach, he tends to be harder on you than the rest of the team. After all, he doesn’t want to be seen as playing favorites. But this seems a little excessive.
6. Rock Star Dad
Some kids are born to famous dads. This girl’s father happened to play guitar for one of the greatest classic rock bands ever created– Pink Floyd. Imagine taking guitar lesson from him.
7. Daddio
Disciplining your child can be one of the toughest parts of being a father. You want to teach them a lesson, but you also want them to know you still love them. This dad nailed that combination by having some fun with his daughter’s punishment.
8. Like Father, Like Goat
Some people believe that we used to be animals in past lives. If they’re right, then this dad was definitely a goat in one of his. Can’t you see the resemblance?
9. Stool Sample
No matter how old they get, some dads will never stop making dad jokes. This father got himself a 3D printer and made a tiny stool. He then gave it to his doctor when he asked him for a stool sample.
10. Face Filter
When his wife told him that she didn’t want their newborn son’s face posted on the internet, he decided to use a face filter to disguise his baby boy. Needless to say, his wife probably isn’t going to let him edit the pictures from now on.
11. Dad Uniform
Technically, when your first baby is born, you become a father. But you don’t really become a dad until you put on the uniform. This guy knows what I’m talking about.
12. Asleep On The Job
Going to work with your dad can be fun as a child. But when your dad’s job involves driving all day, it can be hard to stay awake for it. This little guy was caught sleeping on the job.
13. Behind The Mask
This baby boy is jaundiced and needs to receive light therapy. Since his son couldn’t speak for himself, his dad decided to draw on his child’s mask to inform the nurses about how he really felt about all this. Nice one, dad.
14. Poop Cake
Potty training your kids can be hard work. So to motivate his daughter to use the potty all by herself for the first time, her dad promised her a chocolate cake. Well… it worked.
15. Peein’ Your Pants Is Cool
We all had accidents in our pants when we were kids and even at that young age, we knew it was embarrassing. This little girl had an accident at school, so dad swooped in and saved the day. To make her feel less embarrassed, he “peed” his pants too.
16. Dad Jokes
There’s nothing like making a good joke on top of another joke. This dad made good one about his wife’s pregeanncy. But the commentators stepped his joke up a notch.

When a dad joke is done right, it can be hilarious. Take this one for example. It’s simple, straightforward, and he nailed the delivery.
20. Payback
COVID restrictions have left many of us working from home. Although it’s nice not having to commute, trying to hold on-line meetings with kids in the house can be difficult. This dad decided to drop in on his kid’s zoom class dressed like this as payback.
21. Mom’s Out Of Town
Every family splits up their responsibilities differently. In this family, the mom usually takes care of the parent’s homework. However, with her out of town, dad decided to take over. I think we can all see why mom usually handles these types of things.
22. Brutal Honesty
There’s nothing like a little brutal honesty to show your love for your kids. This dad decided to not only show his brutally honest love to his son, but to the rest of the kid’s high school class as well. Well played, dad.
23. Looking Good, Dad
Before picking his son up at the airport, he mentioned to him that it may be hard to recognize him because of all the weight that he lost. Turns out it wasn’t the weight loss that would make him hard to spot…
24. Feet-loaf
Holloween is a fun time of the year. You get to dress up, eat candy, oh, and make feet-loaf. This dad was very proud of his spooky holiday meal. And based on how awesome it looks, I think he should be.

When his son told him that he wanted to play the board game Risk, this dad knew he was going to need to prepare since he’d never heard of the game. When his son showed up at his dad’s house, he found him sitting there with printed out maps and game strategies. He was ready to go.
26. Bra-maka
When this dad finds his daughter’s bra pads lying around the house, he likes to put them on top of the dog’s head. It makes the dog look adorable and Jewish. Now he’s got his very own bra-maka.

Dads can find a way to make anything funny. So while spending time in a beautiful location, does this dad just sit back and enjoy the scenery? Nope, he makes a snot-rocket out of the waterfall.
28. Giving It A Try
This dad just bought a burial plot for himself for when he dies. Rather than hope it works out later, he decieded to try it out now. It looks good to me.
29. Shocked Son
This son can’t believe what his bald dad looks like when he’s wearing a wig. If he wears it long enough though, his son will get used to it. Then he can blow his little mind again once he takes it off.
30. Raccoon Baby
This picture is awesome for two reasons. For one, this young dad is raising a baby raccoon. That’s awesome. And two, he told his daughter that found some cute baby pictures of her before showing her these. That’s even more awesome.
31. Inspirational Quote?
This board is meant to hold inspirational quotes in the baby’s room–that is until dad got ahold of it, of course. I don’t think mom has noticed yet.

36. It’s Only A Page
When his daughter told him that his wedding speech could only be one page long, this dad had a plan. He just went and found himself the longest piece of paper that he could find. It’s his daughter’s wedding, after all, and he deserves to speak for as long as he wants.
