|
| Well my parents have there 16th anniversary on August 3rd, 2007 and we've done a few things already.Last year we did a slide show of photos from when they were born to present time. We dont have much money, but want to do something special. Keep in mind we are 13 and 15 years old. So we cant buy alcohol or drive them places (like a restraunt or anything) We need ideas on something special and easy for young kids. Thanks! Chels |

| How about both of you make your parents breakfast in bed? Make something simple like toast and butter, OJ, coffee, etc (you know what your parents like). Give them two movie tickets to watch whatever they want. When they leave to go see a movie then you can run a bath for them. Ask them what time they will be home so you can get everything ready when they get home. Put some aromatic candles (be really careful not to burn anything else), put in some relaxing salt and oil in the water (you can go to Target or Bath and Body or any other store for those items - ask for help from the employees there), and spread some rose petals on the water. Put some rose petals from your parents' bedroom door to the bathtub like a trail. Turn off the light in the bathroom so the only light they see is the candles. If you can, get some fresh strawberries, put them in a bowl, then put the bowl on a counter close to the bathtub (but not too close). Have fun! |

| well have grandma help you by getting you a recipe and items to make them a nice breakfast and that evening if they dont have special plans for her to come over and cooking them a meal and set up a table outside with candles and a bottle of wine......cheap meal: spaghetti and cheap bottle of something like arbor mist. total cost is most likely under $50. and grams will most likely help with the cost. you could do a couple chores around her house to earn the money! |

| How about sitting down and writing them a letter, letting them know how much you love them? And how much you appreciate everything that they've done for you. You can give it to them with a special dinner/breakfast that you make for them. Let me tell you, I've just answered a few questions from some obnoxious teen talking about what her parents need to do for her. It sounds like you both have been raised by fantastic parents. I'm sure that your parents just adore you. |

| Write out a voucher book. You put things in like a free car wash or a night off where you cook dinner and clean up and stuff like that. As your parents feel they can cash the vouchers in for your free services. It is cheap and easy and you can be as creative as you want. |
