Mother’s Day is just around the corner and Today’s Woman brings you some wonderful gift ideas from Peter Pauper Press for the busy mom, the stressed mom, the mom that loves to write and the mom that loves to read.

Give Mom the gift of journaling for Mother’s Day

Keeping a journal has many advantages. By regularly jotting down your life events and feelings on paper- one can relieve stress and goodness knows a high percentage of mothers feel stressed. The routine and habit of journaling means making time for yourself – something mother’s don’t always do. A journal is also a great place for  mom to keep lasting memories.

A journal does not have to be  expensive. This Watercolor Birds Journal diary from Peter Pauper Press provides lightly-lined pages for personal reflection, sketching, jotting down favorite quotations or poems. 160 lightly-lined writing pages feature complementary interior art and the acid-free archival paper takes pen or pencil beautifully.

Mother’s Day bookmarks

Bookmarks make for a nice gift as they can  easily be enclosed in a greeting card or included with a special book for a special person.

Bookmarks can be anything from a bookmark with your friend’s favorite quote “”Live well, laugh often, and love much” to i-clips magnetic bookmarks. i-clip bookmarks are nice for those  that tend to have a couple books going at once as  multiple bookmarks come in a package.
