Mother's Day



How much do we spend on Mother's Day - Use the Mother's Day event to engage your students in approximating, reasoning, and investigating as students estimate how much is spent in the United States for Mother's Day.

  • For what is money spent?
  • For whom is money spent?
  • What is a low guess?
  • What is a high guess?
  • What facts would you like to know?

For Adventurer members we have an editable Word docx and solutions.

Food for thought: Will consumers spend more in 2024 or Mother's Day? If so, by how much? Why or why not?
