Mother’s Day Gifts

Mother's Day Gifts

Isn’t it funny how mom’s know exactly what to get everyone as a gift for every occasion but shopping for them can sometimes be difficult and a bit stressful? I mean, what kind of present can we get her that doesn’t fall in the cliche options of flowers, a Pandora bracelet, or your normal spa day? What’s something that she can truly appreciate and remember? Well, being a mother myself, here are a few Mother’s Day gifts and ideas that I’m sure she will love, treasure and put to use.

My Ideal Mother’s Day

One thing I thought would be great was to give you an idea of what my ideal mother’s day would entail. (And yes, I do realize that it’s a total fantasy.) That way, it can spark some ideas on what to plan for your wife’s special day. Mine would go a little something like this.

I’d wake up to my husband and my daughter giving me a sweet little gift of scent. Something like NEST Fragrances ‘Bamboo’ Reed Diffuser. I’m big on scents and love candles but rarely light them. I think I’m always scared I’ll rush out of the house and forget to blow them out. Therefore, I have a closet full of candles. I feel like a diffuser is the perfect alternative. But moving forward, after a lovely Mother’s Day gift surprise in the morning, I walk into the kitchen with breakfast already prepared followed by a little relaxation. Then, when it’s time for lunch, my husband surprises me by taking me to my favorite restaurant and then sends me off to get a massage, which so happens to be a prelude to a nice little pedicure. Of course, after a full day of being catered to, my husband yet again plans dinner by setting up a romantic little dinner table for three in the backyard with grilled salmon and veggies. With the day winding down, my daughter gives me a precious Mother’s Day gift that she created before giving me hugs and kisses for the night. Following the royal treatment, my husband takes on the bedtime routine of getting Stella ready for bed while I cozy up and recap the wonderful day with a great glass of wine and some dark chocolate.

This would be my ideal Mother’s Day (as I’m sure is the same for other mothers as well) because as moms, we usually never get a day off. Even if we are out of the office, we are always doing something, whether that’s picking up the house, taking care of the kids or running errands. We are always occupied. So giving her the day off is perfect! Mom’s are also very sentimental and treasure anything their kids make for them. So a great little idea would be to send your little one off with someone crafty like your nanny, grandparent or a trusted adult to take them to a place where they can create something special for mom for Mother’s Day. An example would be a pottery place where they can make something special and memorable she can hang up on the wall.

Now, if you are looking for additional gifts to surprise her for her special day, I’ve compiled a few others I know she’ll love this Mother’s Day.

Robe – Most women don’t often buy themselves a robe but is something they all want to have. Quite frankly, I believe that this is a necessity for everyone. I mean nothing feels better than a beautiful, luxurious robe when relaxing. This is a perfect gift for Mother’s Day, especially if you’re planning for her to have a day off and spend that time unwinding.
