Being a mother changes a per- son's life in dramatic ways. Mother's Day is a great time of year to honor moth- ers and attempt to give back just a portion of the tireless love and devotion moms offer their children. Some children provide large gestures, while others feel it's the little things that can help a mom to feel ap- preciated. For those needing a little inspiration on treating their mothers in special ways, consider these ideas. • Make mom a breakfast in bed with her favorite morning treats. • Enjoy a movie at home with mom. Let her pick the flick and share her favorite film with you. • Agree to not bicker for the entire day, especially if you are prone to getting into argu- ments with siblings. • Put together a collage of photos from moments you have shared with mom or your family. • Cook a meal together and learn about everyone's favorite recipes or the family history. • Give her a locket with your photo inside and have a duplicate you can wear con- taining her photo. • Customize a coffee mug, tote bag or a blanket with a meaningful sentiment or photo. • Treat mom to a day off from her chores. Tackle all of the jobs she normally does for the family. • Bake a delicious dessert that mom will absolutely de- vour. • Pamper mom with a gift card for her favorite nail salon or massage therapy location. • Prepare a jar of mom's favorite candies wrapped in pieces of paper that have loving sentiments written on them. • Compile a playlist of songs and artists mom prefers and download them to her phone. • Begin a charm bracelet tradition by purchasing See SPECIAL, Page 12 Mother's Day is a special time for children to show their appreciation for their mothers, grandmothers and the other special women in their lives. Older children typically are capable of de- signing their own Mother's Day crafts or even shopping for gifts for Mom, while younger children will likely need some help from an adult. Youngsters may not be able to take charge of Moth- er's Day festivities alone, but they certainly have the energy and enthusiasm to chip in. Handmade craft gifts are a thoughtful way for young kids to show their love for Mom. Here are a few ideas that can occupy even the youngest of hands. Handprint butterfly photo card All that is necessary for this craft is a printed pho- tograph of the child's face, paper, scissors, glue, and finger paints. The child should dip hands into the paint and make four hand- prints on paper in some pre- ferred colors. When dry, cut around the perimeter of the handprints. These will serve as the "wings" of the butter- fly. Glue the picture of the child's face in the middle of a piece of paper or card stock. Draw a butterfly body underneath it (or print out a stock image to use). Draw antennae sticking out of the child's head and attach the handprints around the head and butterfly body to make the wings. Heartfelt masterpiece Children can draw and color all over a large sheet of construction paper or another durable paper. An adult can then use another sheet of paper to make a frame mat of sorts, cutting out a heart shape from the middle. Both pieces of paper are then trimmed to the di- mensions of a photo frame. The artwork is placed first and then the heart matting on top so that the artwork will show through the heart shape. Frame everything together for a lasting me- mento. Fuzzy flowers Kids can make Mom a bouquet of flowers that will never wilt. Print a photo of the child's face and attach it to a piece of circular card stock that is roughly six inches in diameter. Have the child paint a popsicle stick green, and then attach that to the back of the round card stock. The child then glues small fuzzy pom poms to the card stock surrounding the picture to make a flower. If desired, attach a magnet to the back of the flower so it can be secured to the re- frigerator. Crafts are a great gift option for young children looking to give something special to Mom on Mother's Day. Make Mother's Day special Crafts lead the way for Mother's Day gifts
