You probably can't pinpoint the exact moment when you knew your dad was the real MVP, but you're so grateful to have your very own superhero in your corner. You don't have to be a kid to believe that your dad or the father figure in your life is an extraordinary human being. So, whenever you’re flipping through photo albums or snapping candids of Dad showing off his grilling skills, you’ll need a list of quality dad captions, be it daddy-daughter captions or father-son captions for Instagram.

When you reminisce on all of the fearless and selfless things your dad has done for you since you were little, it's difficult to hold back the happy tears. How did you get so lucky? You’re no stranger to giving your dad the kudos he deserves on the regular. Whether he's giving you valuable advice or simply listening to you catch him up on your day, his influence makes all the difference in the world, and you're proud to be his kid.

Anyone who knows you has likely heard a story or two about those dad moments when he handled parenting like a complete and utter boss — or when he embarrassed you beyond compare. And you know you never really get tired of telling them, either. But before you post a throwback pic of your dad and give your followers heart eyes, pair that sweet moment with a just-as-sweet dad caption that really takes the cake. For some inspiration, here are 35 dad captions for Instagram.
