Hey friends,
Since mother’s day is just around the corner, I wanted to share some gift ideas with you guys. I think that we should give gifts that are meaningful and thoughtful. Instead of buying the latest gadget or newest fashion piece, I rather spend time with that person, do something for them that can help them or buy them an item that they needed and will last for a while. This also means buying eco-friendly products!
Keep reading for inspiration for mother’s day gifts. I hope that this list of ideas will bring you and your mother closer and add some joy to your lives!
Mother’s day gift ideas
Spending time with mom
- Take her out to lunch or dinner (one on one or with the family).
- Cook dinner for her at home (try to make her favorite meal or something nice).
- Try out a new recipe with her (this is fun for married adult daughters who are out of the house).
- Take her to a sports game.
- Go plant shopping with her (buy her beautiful plants for her house, instead of just a bouquet that’ll last for a few days).
- Buy her a spa kit and give her a spa day (yes, you will be the one giving the pedicure, etc.).
- Start doing book studies with your mom, starting on mother’s day.
Acts of service for mom
- Clean the entire house for her (if you still live at home, help her out, do a deep cleaning of the house so she can relax).
- If you are old enough and still live at home, maybe you can discuss with your mom to start cooking one or two meals a week for the family.
- Set up a list of podcasts that she can listen to on the road or while doing her work (figure out what she likes to listen to, if its sermons, news, inspiration and make a fun group on her phone for her).
- Download sermon series for her to listen to on her commute or study time.
Items to buy for mom
- Buy a custom piece of jewelry from Etsy (they have some adorable items on there).
- If your mom likes gardening, you can get her a gardening kit to help her out.
- Buy her some classical music CDs.
- Get her some traditional hymn CDs.
- Buy her audio Bible CDs.
- Give her some inspirational and helpful books:
- Ties that bind-A mother-daughter 52-week devotional.
- Women counseling women: This book is excellent for women that want counseling or to counsel others. Mothers are our counsellers, so this book can definitely be of great use for all moms!
- The complete houseplant survival manual: This is great for the moms that love plants.
- The well-tended perennial garden: Also an excellent book for helping moms out in the garden, you can also look for books about planting fruit and vegetable plants.
- Prayer Journal.
- Sermon Journal.
