As much as Mom would love another dried macaroni and paste creation for Mother’s Day, consider doing something special this year. At the Museum of Coastal Carolina, children can create a card and a bead-and-pearl necklace as a beautiful and unique gift. Another gift comes along with this: a chance for Mom to enjoy the museum galleries and gift shop while the children complete their craft projects. Museum of Coastal Carolina, 21 E. Second St. Saturday, 11 a.m.–noon. Free for members; adults, $9; children, $7. (910) 579-1016, www.museumplantarium.org
