The Trendiest Ways to Spend Mother’s Day with the Moms in Your Life
The Trendiest Ways to Spend Mother’s Day with the Moms in Your Life
This likely comes as no surprise, but moms are absolute superheroes. They manage to keep tabs on every aspect of not only their own, but their children’s lives, and keep everything running smoothly so that those they love are happy and healthy.
And while we should be grateful for all our moms do every day, there’s one time of year that comes around where we remember to put her first. There are a ton of ways to show your appreciation on and around Mother’s Day to make sure your mother knows just how special she is to you.
Trendiest Mother’s Day Activity Ideas
There are various activities and experiences you can share with your mom to celebrate the occasion, and what you choose can be especially suited to your mom’s tastes and interests. Check out these ideas:
Bring the Mom in Your Life Outside
If your mom is the adventurous type, try out a new hiking trail, so you can achieve your goals and reach that summit together! You could also try out camping, or glamping, to add an extra layer of special to an outdoor occasion. And make sure to take in the views with some photos to document. Those photos could prove handy gifts later on.
If your mom has a green thumb, you could work together on her garden, or make your own terrariums together. That way, you’ll have a living reminder of your special bond.
Explore Your Town in a New Way
If you’re not the outdoorsy type, try a new cuisine at a restaurant, or take your mom to your favorite dive bar if you think she’d get a kick out of it.
Depending on her team loyalty, it could be fun to get tickets for a sporting event, a batting cage, or maybe tickets to see a musical act she likes. Remember, this isn’t about you. So, if you have to get the Donny Osmond tickets, so be it!
If your mom is into a little pampering, go ahead and splurge on a spa day! You could get facials, massages, or try something new. But if you don’t have the budget for some of those pricey treatments, don’t worry! You don’t have to spend a ton of money for a day of relaxation. More on that below:
DIY Your Own Spa Day
You can come up with a special activity to do with mom without breaking the bank. We talked about going out for an affordable spa day, but you could make your own mimosas and DIY some scrubs or facemasks from ingredients you probably already have in your fridge or pantry!
You could also try hosting a game night. If you have siblings, this is a great, affordable way to team up and throw a fun event for mom, complete with all her favourite games, snacks, and of course, people!
Or, have her girlfriends come over, and serve as the bartender for an impromptu happy hour!
And speaking of snacks, if your mom is a whiz in the kitchen, ask her to teach you some family recipes. You can learn more about her life, just by talking and making the food that’s a part of it!
Plus, if she’s the type to eyeball measurements and keeps those recipes in her head, take special note of her instructions, and type them all up in a book for her as a gift!
No matter what you choose, remember that the most important part of your activities is spending quality time together.
Your mom is so much more than just the person to call when you’re sad or sick. She’s your partner in all walks of life. Even if we focus on ourselves the other 364 days of the year, on Mother’s Day, turn your attention to properly express your appreciation and gratitude for all your mom does!
