Making Mother's Day Coupons
- Gather about 3-4 different paper colors. They can be white or colored (pink, yellow, purple, red, etc).
- Measure and cut out uniform pieces; rectangular (shown), or shapes your mom likes~hearts, butterflies, etc.
- Present the gift to your mom in two ways:
Presenting the Coupons
- Decorate the pieces of paper by writing what the coupons are good for and draw pictures. (See below for ideas of what to include in the coupon.)
- Make a container to put the coupons in. You can use an envelope, a basket, or anything else you can think of.
- Wrap everything up in tissue, a box, or a bag. It is now ready for presenting.
Making a Booklet
- Organize the papers in a color pattern to make the coupon booklet more presentable.
- Staple everything together about 1/4 inch (0.635cm) from the edge.
- Write a title on the first paper.
- Use the other papers to write down what the coupons are for. See suggestions in the next section.
Coming up with Ideas for Coupons
- Be creative about what the coupons are for. Some ideas include: free dish-washing, free hug, free laundry-doing, free dog walking, free massage, free hair styling, free gardening-for-an-afternoon, etc. You could also offer to cook certain meals for a specified time, or to bake treats. Other options are things they particularly like doing (tickling you, kissing you etc.)
- Finished.
Tips
- Use either cool colors such as blue, green, and purple or warm colors like yellow, red, and orange; try not to mix cool and warm colors together.
