Mother’s Day is quickly approaching. I know that the majority of you guys reading this are Moms, but you could technically pass this info along to your hubbies, right?
Here are some cute Mother’s Day craft ideas at Kids Craft Magazine. I subscribe to them in my reader and love their adorable ideas for crafts.
Two books that are a great gift idea for Mom are:
From borrowed outfits to goofy mannerisms, there is a time when most women must sheepishly admit, “I’m turning into my mother.” But while our uncanny connections can draw us closer, sometimes these similarities can drive us up the wall. To help your readers navigate to complexities of their mother-daughter relationships, “Chicken Soup for the Soul: Like Mother, Like Daughter,” (Chicken Soup for the Soul, September 30, 2008, 978-1935096-07-8, $14.95) provides a collection of stories written by moms and daughters on maternal wisdom, raising teenage girls, becoming friends with Mom, grandmothers, granddaughters, and more.
As numerous mothers know, raising boys can be an adventure. From baby blue blankets to first wedding dances, sons provide their mothers immeasurable amounts of joy – not to mention bruised knees to clean, rambunctious friends, and good-natured teasing. Written for mothers and “mama’s boys” everywhere, “Chicken Soup for the Soul: Moms and Sons” (Chicken Soup for the Soul Publishing, LLC., 978-1-935096-16-0, September 2008, $14.95) offer glimpses into the touching – and often funny – interactions between mothers and their boys, as grateful sons, single moms, and loving grandmothers all chime in to add their voices to this new collection.
Both titles are now available at Target (for my American readers) for a special discounted price until Mother’s Day on May 10.
I love reading Chicken Soup for the Soul books. They are heartwarming and simply feel good books!

This would be a wonderful gift idea for Mother’s Day. I doubt she has read any of the ‘Chicken Soup for the Soul’ series, so these would be excellant topics to introduce. And either selection would work but IF I had to choose one over the other I would pick ‘Like Mother, Like Daughter’. 🙂

If I win, I would love the daughters book. Thanks.
I have one of each so I would have no preference.
