Priceless Treasures for Mom on her Special Day
Mom is the one who nurtures the children. She takes care of them when they are ill, is there for all of their important events and is an important part of every child’s life. It is important to honor her every day but on Mother’s Day, it is nice to give her a special gift to show her she is appreciated.
A priceless Mother’s Day gift from a young child to mom is a paper plate handprint. This is a simple gift. Get a white paper plate, some string, and washable paints. Have the child put his or her hand in the paint and then place the handprint on the paper plate. Allow the plate to dry and then punch a hole in the top of the plate. Put the sting thought the hole and it is a gift every mom will treasure.
As young children turn into teenagers, they no longer like to spend time with mom. Mom simply becomes the chauffer, cook, and disciplinarian. She is the one who is always the “bad guy” because she has to say no. The child-parent relationship suffers many changes through these turbulent years. Much of the time mom feels unappreciated and misses the time she use to spend with her child.
A priceless gift that a teenager can give mom on Mother’s Day is spending time with her. This gift is free and mom will be so happy to receive it. Watch a movie with her or go do something together that both of you enjoy doing. Really spend time with her and make her feel like she is more than just a chauffeur and cook. Devote the whole day to mom. Make her feel appreciated and important. She will remember this special day to keep her going through the rough years ahead.
As an adult, children can give mom a priceless gift. Some children live far away, others are close by. No matter where the child lives a picture of the whole family is a priceless gift. Most moms cherish the memories that pictures represent. A family memory book is another gift mom will love. Tell a story with pictures. She will treasure her book forever.
Mom is an important part of every child’s life no matter what his or her age. She is the one who gives life. Children should show her love and appreciation every day, but it is nice to get a priceless gift on Mother’s Day.
