All I Want for Mother’s Day is…

by Kelly

I read an article that suggested that you buy kids’ books for mom on Mother’s Day. A number of moms took issue with the article and thought it was rude to recommend buying a gift for mom that was really for someone else (the kids). I disagree. Those must be moms with more time, patience and money than I have.

I think buying kids’ books for mom on Mother’s Day is a super idea if you get books that mom will enjoy. Let’s face it, we all have those dreaded books that we just can’t stand reading… I have hidden the dancing pig book (I won’t even give it a nod by mentioning the real title) more times than I care to admit just to have it out of the way. As a mom, I don’t want to spend the half hour before my kids’ bedtime reading annoying books. I prefer to have fun.

So, if my kids decided to buy a few interesting reads to share with me for Mother’s Day, I say “THANKS!” I would love to spend time with my children reading books that we can all enjoy.

About Tiny Treasury

It's impossible to get rid of a bad children's book once it has entered your house. In fact, if history teaches us anything, it's that it will become a favorite. Your child will cling to it, sleep with it and worst yet, require you to read it over and over again.

At tinytreasury.com, our mission is separate the good from the bad. If I can save one parent from having to read a rhyming book about dancing pigs, then I'll know I've done my job.
