Clay Pot Jewelry Holder
On Friday, May 6 from 6-8p, Michaels will help kids make a Clay Pot Jewelry Holder for Mom. This Knack event is for kids ages 3 and up. The event is free with the purchase of a Clay Pot.
This looks like a really great gift for Mom or Grandma. I am thinking of taking my daughter to make one of these for my mom.
Kids Can Make Mother's Day Cards Tonight
Even better, than the card, you get to send the kids shopping with Dad to make the card getting some alone time before the big day.

Free Dora the Explorer Episodes - First Day of School and More
 |
| Image From iTunes |
This episode is currently free on iTunes. This will be a great episode to have for your child before they start school in the fall whether they are starting kindergarten at a new school or maybe younger and starting preschool for the first time. Free iTunes episodes are sometimes only free for a limited time, so I recommend "purchasing" the episode now.
Bark, Bark to Play Park, Dora's Jack in the Box, Dora Had a Little Lamb, and ABC Animals are also currently being offered for free.
Bark, Bark to Play Park is about Twins Day at Play Park and Dora will introduce her dog Perrito to his twin he hasn't seen since they were newborn pups.
In Dora's Jack in the Box, she is looking for a gift to cheer up her twin brother and sister who have been sick. She finds a dusty jack in the box on a high shelf at the toy store.
In Dora Had a Little Lamb, Dora and Boots wander through fairy tale land helping Little Lamb find her way back to Mary while also helping the Itsy Bitsy Spider, Humpty Dumpty and Peter Piper.
The animals are missing from the ABC book in ABC Animals. Dora and Boots travel through the book to find the letters.

Make Your Own Book - A Deal to Get Started
Have you seen Blurb.com? You can design your own book. I love this concept because it goes beyond a standard photo book. You can create a black and white book starting at $2.95 or a color book starting at $12.95.
You can use their layout software or convert PDFs to make your book. I have digital scrapbook pages from when my daughter was an infant saved as PDFs. This is a great way for me to turn them into a bound book. Blurb books have an advantage over photo books in the way they incorporate text.
Some ideas they suggest are a year in review, a family cookbook, genealogy, and more. With graduations, weddings, Mother's Day, and Father's Day coming up there are plenty of great gift giving occasions coming up.
Today, Groupon is offering a $45 certificate for just $20. The promotional value of the Groupon expires on August 3, 2011. After that, the certificate will revert to $20 (the price you paid) and never expires.

Get $35 of Mother's Day Flowers for just $15
Today Living Social is offering a great deal for Mother's Day flowers. For just $15, you get $35 of Mother's Day flowers (redeem 5/3-11/03/11) or for just $12 you can get $30 for post-Mother's Day flowers (redeem 5/10-11/03/11). After November 3, the certificates will revert to the value you paid for them losing the promotional value.
The certificates are valid on sale items, but not on gift cards. I don't see any restrictions on combining with a coupon, but will not guarantee that you can use a coupon. FTD shipping or service fees apply to orders (currently $20.99 for Mother's Day weekend). You can decrease the service fee by surprising mom early and having it delivered early this week. However, there are some items that ship direct in a gift box and do not have these service fees although Saturday delivery will cost extra.
