Your mom gave birth to you, took care of you, and molded you to become the person you are today. She is probably the one person you love most in the world, which means making her feel like the luckiest woman ever during special days like Mother’s Day and beyond.
Even in the wake of the ongoing pandemic, there are many ways you could spoil your mom this Mother’s Day, all while staying safe. From getting her a digital card and arranging a fancy brunch to sponsoring a spa session, the list is endless. If you are having a hard time deciding what to do for your mom on this year’s Mother’s Day, here are some unique considerations.
Send Her a Digital Gift Card
This Mother’s Day is unlike any since Covid-19 has influenced a lot of how the world operates. There’s a good chance you live really far away from your mom, and traveling is not an option. With this in mind, you still have an awesome opportunity to show her love. Electronic gift cards are a modern way of gifting, and their use has been on a constant rise over recent years. With the technology, you can literally text a gift card to your mom right from your smartphone.
Companies that offer digital gift services save you the hassle of going to the shop, buying a gift, and physically sending it. The technology eradicates challenges such as the risk of loss as you can easily follow up and track the entire process on an app installed on your phone. Different service providers will offer diverse ways in which your mom can receive the card, such as digital cards, and cash, among others.
Make Her Merry at Home
With the pandemic still interrupting daily life, taking your mom out for a treat of a lifetime may not be the best idea, especially if she is older. Luckily, there is an array of interesting things you could do for your mom right from home. Instead of taking her out for an iconic brunch, consider acquiring some delicious brunch recipes from which she can choose what she wants you to prepare for her.
Another idea to supplement cooking the best dish for your mom is looking for a DIY craft idea, especially if she loves art. An artistic gift could end up being the highlight of the day because you might end up customizing the perfect piece, given you have known your mom for your whole life and understand what she treasures most.
The Perfect Stress Reliever
Being the successful mom she is, your favorite woman is probably under a lot of work-related pressure daily. Needless to say, she could be in dire need of activities to relieve the stress. Mother’s Day is the perfect time to make her forget all these troubles.
From having a picnic at a local destination that has a deeper meaning to both of you, like a place she used to take you years ago, to surprising her with a visit to a place she has always wanted to go to, there is a lot you could do to make her happy without breaking the bank.
Consider blessing her with a much-needed visit to the spa. A spa date will refresh her soul, clear her mind, and make her feel beautiful and special. The convenience here is you could book her a massage or manicure even if you live in another state or across the world.
Make a Video for Mom
If your mom is not fussed about fancy treatments, there are still plenty of options to choose from to make her day. Remember when she used to sing you her favorite song? One of the most unexpected gifts you could give to your mom is a recording of you and your kids singing or dancing to her favorite song. This works particularly well if you live far away from each other or you have not seen her in a long time.
Seeing her son or daughter and grandchildren sing and dance will definitely mean a lot to her even beyond Mother’s Day. To spice up your video, you can include props and crank up some original dance moves to create a one-of-a-kind performance. At the end of the performance, leave her a brief message of love. If your mom is with the times, you could make her this video on something like TikTok.
In a similar vein, consider gifting your mom an interesting online class, especially if she enjoys learning new things. This is particularly important during the pandemic period when she is probably spending long hours at home. She could learn many different things such as a new lifestyle sport or yoga and nutritional lessons.
Get Her a Box of Love
Modern times call for modern methods even when it comes to gifting. Your mom is invaluable, so why not go the extra mile and get her a recurring gift to keep her feeling special every month? With over 500 types of subscription boxes to choose from in the US alone, you are sure to find something that could work for your mom.
Even better, you can spice it up with the element of surprise to make her excited every time the delivery date approaches. Subscription boxes are perfect because you can ensure they always contain what she likes, be it a CBD face mask, art, or luxury items for her pantry.
There are so many potential ways to spoil your mom this Mother’s Day, even with the limitations caused by the pandemic. The idea is to give her an experience that she will not forget by combining fun activities and things that will touch her heart and make her feel appreciated.
You can opt for something that she already loves, or introduce her to something new. Remember, your mom has done so much for you since you were born, so it’s worth considering a few spoils every now and then even beyond Mother’s Day.
