Mother's Day Gift Guide - Kobo Arc eReaders

Wednesday, May 07, 2014

Recently, I was asked what I would love to get from my kids on Mother's Day. While I love opening up their handmade cards and gifts, I always secretly hope to be able to sleep in, have a late breakfast in bed and then snuggle back under the covers to read a good book or watch a movie. (Just in case my husband is reading this, I am still wondering what that would be like. *nudge-nudge*) Being the techy mom that I am, however, a nice new eReader would also make for a wonderful gift, especially if it can double as a tablet. And the Kobo Arc is just that - a tablet for eReaders with Internet browsing capabilities and downloadable apps.
