SUMMARY: Today on Mom to Mom, we share a fun outdoor activity: making nature bracelets with your kids! This engaging project allows children to explore the outdoors while learning about the seasons. To start, take some duct tape, wrap it around your child’s wrist (or hold it loosely), and head outside. Collect lightweight natural items like flowers, leaves, or small twigs to stick on the tape. While heavier items like rocks may fall off, lighter materials are ideal. Enjoy this activity in your garden, on walks, or at parks. Share your outdoor ideas on our Facebook page for a chance to be featured!

Mandy has a cute tip to make your next nature walk with the kids more interactive.

SUMMARY: Primary elections are taking place today in South Mississippi, offering residents the chance to engage in democracy. Key races include mayor, city council, and board of aldermen, with polls open since 7 AM. In Long Beach, current Mayor George Baz is not seeking reelection, leaving four candidates to compete. Turnout has been light, especially given the significance of the Republican primary. In Ocean Springs, incumbent Kenny Holloway faces four challengers. Polls close at 7 PM, and voters can participate in either the Republican or Democratic primary, but not both. Mississippi Move is providing free ride shares for voters.

Polls open Tuesday, April 1, at 7 a.m. and will close at 7 p.m.

SUMMARY: **Summary (100 words):**
In this week’s *Behind the Business: Sugar Tribe Sweets and Events*, what began as a hobby for Ocean Springs’ Jennifer Mayfield has grown into a flourishing bakery and event business. Inspired by a cake she made for her nephew’s birthday, Mayfield launched Sugar Tribe through social media. Self-taught via YouTube and trial and error, she expanded from home baking to two storefronts. Sugar Tribe now offers custom cakes, themed desserts, brownies, cinnamon rolls, king cakes, and event services including linens and decor. Though cakes are her specialty, Mayfield’s creativity drives her growing success—alongside owning an urgent care clinic.
