MOTHER’S DAY GIVES YOU A DEFINED TIME TO REFOCUS ON THE WOMAN WITH WHOM YOU
SHARE YOUR LIFE AND YOUR CHILDREN. YES, DOING SOMETHING NICE FOR HER SHOULD BE
AN EVERYDAY AFFAIR. SMALL GESTURES THAT DEMONSTRATE YOUR LOVE AND APPRECIATION
AREN’T DIFFICULT TO MAKE AND THEY DON’T TAKE MUCH TIME. BUT, WHEN CAUGHT IN THE
HUSTLE OF LIFE WITH KIDS, IT’S EASY TO FORGET SOMETIMES TO EXPRESS APPRECIATION,
TELL HER I LOVE YOU, OR THAT SHE’S SO GOOD AT BEING A MOM. IN SHORT, IT’S NICE
TO HAVE A DAY TO CELEBRATE THE WOMAN YOU LOVE AND MAKE EXPLICIT WHAT OFTEN GOES
UNSAID. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THERE IS NO SHORTAGE OF THINGS TO DO TO MAKE HER
FEEL SPECIAL, APPRECIATED, AND LOVED. HERE ARE A FEW SUGGESTIONS TO GET YOU
STARTED.

TIPS AND TRICKS
3 SIMPLE WAYS TO CELEBRATE HER FIRST MOTHER’S DAY
1. PRIORITIZE HER SLEEP
CHANCES ARE SHE’D LOVE TO SLEEP IN FOR ANOTHER HOUR OR THREE. SO, PREP A BOTTLE
AND TAKE THE KID OUT FOR A WALK SO SHE CAN DO SO WITHOUT INTERRUPTION. LEAVE A
THERMOS FULL OF COFFEE ON HER NIGHTSTAND. MAYBE A NICE PLATE OF BREAKFAST, TOO,
WITH A HANDWRITTEN CARD PLACED NEAR IT. DOES SHE WANT TO TAKE A NAP LATER
INSTEAD OF GOING OUT? GREAT. MAKE IT HAPPEN. IT’S HER DAY.
2. DRESS UP THE BABY
SPECIAL OCCASIONS CALL FOR SPECIAL ATTIRE. THIS MEANS IT’S TIME TO DRESS THE
BABY IN HIS OR HER DANDIEST OUTFIT AS A SURPRISE. FIND A LOCATION AND TAKE
PICTURES TOGETHER. AND WHEN THE TIME COMES TIME TO REMOVE SAID NICE CLOTHES
BECAUSE THEY’RE INEVITABLY COVERED IN FOOD, POOP, OR BOTH, YOU’RE ON DUTY.
3. DO BETTER THAN CARNATIONS
CARNATIONS ARE THE OFFICIAL FLOWER OF MOTHER'S DAY. CARNATIONS ARE ALSO BORING.
IF YOU KNOW HER FAVORITE FLOWERS, JUST GET THOSE; IF YOU DON'T, YOU CAN'T REALLY
GO WRONG WITH ORCHIDS, LILIES, OR POPPIES.

TIPS AND TRICKS
LET’S GET CRITICAL
IT’S VITAL THAT CHILDREN LEARN THE SKILLS TO THOUGHTFULLY AND CRITICALLY
EVALUATE WHETHER SOMETHING THEY READ ONLINE IS TRUE. BECAUSE KIDS EMULATE THEIR
PARENTS, REBEKAH DIAMOND, M.D., AN ASSISTANT PROFESSOR OF PEDIATRICS AT COLUMBIA
UNIVERSITY, SAYS DADS AND MOMS SHOULD BE MIRRORING THESE BEHAVIORS AND SHOWING
THEM HOW TO ASK QUESTIONS. THESE QUESTIONS CAN INCLUDE:
- WHO WROTE WHAT I’M READING?
- WHAT IS THE INTENTION BEHIND THE ARTICLE? ARE THEY TRYING TO SELL SOMETHING TO
ME OR PERSUADE ME TO DO SOMETHING?
- IS THE STORY MAKING A LOT OF ASSUMPTIONS? IS IT TRYING TO PREDICT THE FUTURE?
- WHAT EVIDENCE IS THE AUTHOR USING TO BACK UP THEIR CLAIMS?
- IS THE ARTICLE TELLING YOU TO JUST TRUST THEM?
