Whew! A few of these special days belong to kids, which means themes are in order. Well, for the girls, anyway — the boys don’t seem to care. So, this year, for one special 5-year-old celebration, there will be a party featuring a hair station, a nail station, and a tattoo station (temporary, of course!). There will also be food and drinks and some swimming, but the mail attractions will be the beauty tables. I can’t wait! What kinds of parties have you thrown? Please share all clever ideas in the comments.

I love to give baskets full of goodies for gifts. I love a good theme too. So I’m recommending you get yourself a basket (or a mini storage bin, tote bag, anything that hold goods — just don’t make it a laundry basket, OK?). Then get yourself a theme, and put together a little something special for mom on Mother’s Day.

Pick a healthy eating theme, and fill your basket with an assortment of fruit. Choose a summer reading theme, and stock your basket with a few books (try this one), a bookmark, a pair of sunglasses and a sun hat. How about summer movies? Gather some movie tickets or a Blockbuster gift card, some microwave popcorn and some not-so-treacherous movie candy (Milk Duds are better than peanut M&Ms). And my favorite: The R&R basket, complete with candle, bubble bath, body lotions and gift certificate for a pedicure. Your basket can be a hodge-podge of all mom’s favorite things, too. You get to decide — just get out there and decide, because Mother’s Day is on Sunday, and it’s Friday, and, well, you’re running out of time.
