We are back with our weekly recommendations for your family fun as well as resources you can use. Are you ready to celebrate Mother's Day this weekend? We are! And we have a few resources for you to share this week!
Help Your Child Make Someone's Day with this Handprint Flower Card offers an easy craft for kids to make mom or grandma something special. We also have an article that will bring laughter and joy to you and the moms you know:
Mom Always Knows Best: Inspiring and Hilarious Mother's Day Quotes. I thoroughly enjoyed writing this and had a hard time selecting the best ones since there were so many to choose from.
We are down to the wire on our Jurassic Quest giveaway for a family 4-pac of tickets! If you haven't entered yet, you have until Saturday, May 11, 2024 at 7:00 pm to do so. Make sure to share it with your friends!
May is also the time to bring awareness to mental health and we have an article from one of our publishers describing his journey to find peace and how he began to focus on his own mental health. By sharing our stories with each other, we can find resolution and resolve. It's so important to reach out if you are struggling or if you know someone who is.
Also, plan a easy breakfast this Mother's Day and try this Easy Overnight Cinnamon Apple Baked French Toast! I bet it's a hit!
