Coupon Books are great.  Get creative about the things the coupons will be for.  Like 15 minute back rub.  Doing stuff you normally don't do as a chore.  A certain number of hugs per day.  Stuff like that.

Answer 8

I am a great one for what we call  "Trash Craft". One of our popular gifts we made on Mom's day was with paper plates, yarn, and glue.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1- Cut one paper plate in half.

2- Punch holes with a single hole punch evenly around both paper plates.

3- String the two plates together by weaving the yarn in and out the holes.

4- Tie off the yarn at the top of the plates, and make loop.

5-  Print out the word COUPONS with glue.

6- Lay yarn on the glue so the word is written in yarn.

Ola! Mom has a coupon storage to hang on her kitchen wall. This can be done with attractive printed paper plates, or plain white paper plates with sticker designs, or art work with crayon. One little girl took lace we had in the craft room and put a lace boarder around the storage plate. There is a lot you can do when you put your imagination to work. One little boy didn't want to yarn print the word COUPONS, instead he used glitter which looked very nice too.

Answer 9

Group all her favorite photos. Make your mom laugh and reminisce her glorious days during Mother's Day through a photo collage. It's also an excellent project for kids. You can choose to come up with your own theme. Perhaps you want to focus on her early childhood days (surely Grandma still has her pictures), her times with your dad, or, most of all, your bonding moments together. When you are already satisfied with what you have done, you can then print your photo collage in a color printer using an A4, short, or long bond paper.
