How To Get Your Kids To Start Saving
Mother’s Day is on Sunday, so it’s time to thank that lady who brought you into the world, kept you fed, and put up with all the headaches. We know we should be doing nice things for them year round, but the occasion of Mother’s Day is a good kick in the pants to do something sweet for Mom.
While we all want to do something nice, sometimes our bank accounts don’t really cooperate. But that’s ok! As we all know, some of the best things in life are free, and those are the things that mothers around the world appreciate.
Unless you’re billing your mom, your time is free. Check out our top 3 free ways to thank Mom this Sunday and be sure to hit the comments to tell us other ideas – bonus points for moms that give our readers first-hand tips!
Art Attack
Remember when you were a kid and Mother’s Day meant breaking out the crayons and paper? Get back to your roots and make a child-themed card for mom. You’ll bring out your inner 1st-grader, and give mom a trip down memory lane.
Get in the kitchen
Some things are clichéd for a reason! Nothing says ‘Mother’s Day’ like a great breakfast. Whip up your mom’s favorite dish (or whatever is in your cooking range). The thought is what counts here, so make sure Saturday is an early night and you can wake up before mom does. You can also order a bouquet of flowers online to make it more special for your mom.
Make it last all year
We all know we should be helping mom out whenever we can, but use this as a great reminder to get started. If you’re around the house, it doesn’t cost you anything to help out. It’s not cheesy to make any day into Mother’s Day. So set a monthly alarm, write it in your calendar, or keep it in your mind.
