* Gift of Time- Moms just want to spend time with their children so make it a Mother-Daughter/Son day， spend the whole day with her on her terms. Do the things she likes doing and give her the royal treatment. *時間禮物——媽媽僅僅希望和她的孩子們呆在一起，所以你要把母親節(jié)變成母親-女兒節(jié)或者母親-兒子節(jié)，花一整天的時間用媽媽喜歡的方式陪著她。做一些她喜歡做的事情，給她一種“王室”的待遇。

    * Home Video-Take your family videos and put together a short home video， a tribute to mom. This can be a little time consuming but can make a great frugal gift and she can enjoy it whenever she misses you. Although it may require a little effort， the process can be a lot of fun and the end result is often priceless. *家庭視頻——收集家庭的視頻把它們做成一個家庭短片，作為禮物送給媽媽。這個會花費一些時間，但是這將會是一個特別經濟的禮物，而且以后媽媽在想你的時候還可以拿出來看。盡管準備這個禮物需要一些努力，但是準備的過程將會給你帶來很大的樂趣而且這個禮物也將是無價的。

    * Mom Mix-Make a CD for her， a collection of all the songs that remind her of you and you growing up. You may have a song you used to sing when driving to school or going to bed， think back and you‘ll be surprised with the result. *媽媽的混音專輯——做一張專輯給媽媽。專輯中收集能夠讓媽媽想起你或者喚起養(yǎng)育你的記憶的所有的歌曲。可以包括你在上學的路上或者躺在床上喜歡唱的歌曲，回想這些也將會給你帶來驚喜。

    * Write a Letter-Write a letter instead of a card， write about all the good memories you have with her and all the things she has done for you. I don‘t mean type， but rather handwritten note the old-fashioned way with a pen and paper. *寫一封信——給媽媽寫一封信，寫下你和媽媽相處的所有甜蜜的回憶以及她為你做的所有的事情。我個人認為不要打印，一定要手寫。

    * Flowers-Flowers can be tricky， you can easily spend a lot of money on it. if you have flowers in your garden or can handpick them this can be a great gift. *鮮花——只要你肯花錢就可以買到很好的鮮花，但是如果這些花是你親手種的或者親手摘得親手挑選的那么對于媽媽來說這將是一個特別的禮物。

    * Manicure and/or Pedicure-Costs around $20-$30 and lasts for 2-3 weeks. Although， this may not be a very personal gift I am sure all mothers would appreciate a day of being papered. *修手指甲或者腳趾甲——花費大約20-30美元讓專業(yè)醫(yī)師為媽媽修手指甲或者腳趾甲，持續(xù)2-3周。盡管，這個禮物不是很有個性，但是我相信所有的媽媽都會感謝自己的孩子在這一天為自己所做的安排。

    * Dinner-Make a frugal dinner and invite her over or you can surprise her and take it over to her house， just don‘t leave a mess behind for her to clean up. *晚餐——做一頓經濟的晚餐，邀請她過來；或者把晚餐帶到她的房子里去給她一個驚喜，記住吃完一定要清理收拾干凈，不要留下一片狼藉讓媽媽來收拾。

    * Scrap Book-Put together a scrap book， here are some already made scrapbooks for a low price all you have to do is insert your pictures. *剪貼薄——整理一個剪貼薄，你可以用很低的價格買一些已經做好的剪貼薄，你需要做的就是在剪貼薄中放入你的照片。
