"Mother&amp;#x27;s Day is fast approaching&amp;amp;#8212;May 12!&amp;amp;#8212;and if you&amp;#x27;re anything like me, you usually break into a panic at the last minute trying to find the perfect gift. Well, I&amp;#x27;m thinking ahead this year, and you can too with these entertainment-y ideas! For the Movie-Loving Mom Because I live so far away from my mom (She&amp;#x27;s in St. Louis; I&amp;#x27;m in NYC), it&amp;#x27;s hard to find gifts that are not only convenient for me to send but easy for her to receive. So, I was glad to discover Redbox offers eGifts&amp;amp;#8212;gift packs of promo codes for Redbox movie and game rentals, starting at $6 for five. Even better, if you buy a Redbox eGift card now through May 12, you&amp;#x27;ll get a free one-night rental for yourself! Better yet, if you&amp;#x27;re lucky enough to live near your mom, pick something you both can enjoy together. For the TV-Obsessed Mom A Roku, Apple TV, or other TV-streaming device would be an amazing gift for any mom who is a pop-culture fan and wants to be able to stream video from online straight to her TV. They price anywhere from $50 to $100&amp;amp;#8212;if you&amp;#x27;re feeling extra generous, I suggest getting a subscription to Hulu Plus, Netflix, or whatever streaming video service account she doesn&amp;#x27;t have yet, so she can get the best experience. Oh, and don&amp;#x27;t forget to actually help her set up all of these accounts! For the Music-Minded Mom A little pro tip from me to you: I recently gave my mom a small, portable speaker for her smartphone (This iFrogz Boost Plus, if you want to know which one specifically!), and it&amp;#x27;s probably one of the better gifts I&amp;#x27;ve found for her in a while! She takes it everywhere with her&amp;amp;#8212;in the bathroom while she&amp;#x27;s getting ready, in the kitchen while she&amp;#x27;s making dinner, outside while she&amp;#x27;s gardening&amp;amp;#8212;and it&amp;#x27;s so easy to use: Simply place the phone on top, and it amplifies the sound. That&amp;#x27;s it. You can find similar portable speakers at most electronics stores, and they have all prices for your budget&amp;amp;#8212;from this cute, colorful $20 iHome, pictured above, to a higher-priced option like this $225 Bluetooth Nokia speaker that charges your phone while playing tunes. For the Tech-Savvy Mom Tech-savvy moms usually have the latest gadgets, so accessorizes to go with their goodies is where it&amp;#x27;s at. An easy go-to is a cute case for her phone, iPad, Kindle, Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0, or whatever tablet she has (I personally love these Trina Turk prints). For a little extra that can fit easily inside a Mother&amp;#x27;s Day card, these GoSwypes, pictured above, are only $1.99, made specifically to clean touchscreen devices, and are reusable for up to 200 swipes. For the Real Housewives-Watching Mom I know this might not apply to every mom, but it definitely is something mine would die to have: a gift basket of the Real Housewives&amp;#x27; many products. There&amp;#x27;s so many options! To name a few: Ramona&amp;#x27;s Pinot, Bethenny&amp;#x27;s SkinnyGirl cocktails, some Yummie Tummie shapewear, or Caroline Manzo&amp;#x27;s new book, Let Me Tell You Something. Hope this helps! What are you getting your mom this year?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
