Precious Blossoms for Mom Design Contest — April 1-30 Every kid wants to have a gift for mom on Mother's Day. After all, she cleans up after us, kisses scraped knees, and bakes cookies for our friends. The Precious Blossoms for Mom design contest, a benefit for The Children's Hospital sponsored by Hyde Park Jewelers, starts April 1 and gives kids up to 18 a chance to score a great gift for mom. "Flower kits" will be available at Hyde Park Jewelers in the Cherry Creek Shopping Center for kids to create a "Precious Blossom" for a chance to win a special gift (over $1,000 in prizes!) from Hyde Park for Mother's Day. In the spirit of giving back to local moms and their kids in need, for each kit turned in for voting, Hyde Park Jewelers will donate $25 to The Children's Hospital Foundation.
