With fathers day and graduation parties approaching I found a coupon for a cool DIY gift. Its called a TickleMe Plant Greenhouse and in it, you can easily grow a real plant in your apartment that will close its leaves and lower its branches when tickled. My students love it and 99% of the people that I give TickleMe Plants to have never had their own house plant that moves when tickled. You can get a TickleMe Plant Greenhouse to grow your own at http://www.ticklemeplant.com and use the coupon code Holiday to get two dollars off.
