Mother’s Day Treats That Will Make Her Smile

Mother’s Day Treats That Will Make Her Smile

With Mother’s Day fast approaching it’s time to think about what gifts the special lady in your life would like. With ideas to suit all budgets, this should help you decide on the perfect way to show your mum you love her. 

Shopping Sprees

What better way to treat your mum than with a trip to all her favourite shops when they reopen? This way, your mum can pick whatever she likes, and you don’t have to worry about getting something that isn’t quite right or not in her size. 

If your mum prefers to shop online or her favourite place isn’t available on your high street, try buying a gift card with the amount you’d like her to spend on it. Gift cards are available for most popular online shops and can last for up to a year before being redeemed, so she can save it for when she spots that something special. 

Experience Days

Is your mum a bit of an adrenaline junkie? Buying an experience day can be a great way to celebrate for those who would rather have memories than trinkets. Experience days come in all shapes and sizes, from afternoon teas and horse riding, to race car driving and sky diving. 

Most experience days are available for two, so you can go along together and share the moment, making her big day extra special. 

Check out what’s within your budget and available near you and give your mum a Mother’s Day experience to remember. If you need some support when treating your mum to more expensive gifts, explore the financial options available to you to for added help along the way. 

Cultural events

If your mum likes nothing better than going to the theatre to watch her favourite actor perform or seeing much-loved musicians live, then tickets to events are a great gifting option. 

Give your mum something to look forward to later in the year. You can make a game out of it by getting her to guess where she’s going, or even do something extra special and upgrade the tickets to a VIP option so that she can meet her idols. 

If your mum likes an occasional tipple, perhaps get her to a local gin or rum festival, or a wine sampling evening. This will give you both a chance to let your hair down and have fun together. 

Spa Retreat

Put the “ahh” in Spa with a relaxing weekend away . Our mums spend so much time taking care of us and working hard that it’s important they have time to rest and reflect with some peace and quiet. You could opt for anything from visiting a nail salon together, taking your mum to get her hair done, a tranquil spa day with lunch included or even go all out and make a weekend of it. 

Show your mum how much she really means to you with some well-needed self-care and rejuvenation for mind, body and soul.

Some retreats offer special discounts and add extras if you are visiting for Mother’s Day. Remember to mention the occasion when booking to see if there are any offers at that time or if personal touches can be added.

Sweet Treats and Florals

Who doesn’t love a tasty treat? Take the traditional route and indulge your mum with a beautiful box of chocolates or her favourite sweets. 

With so many independent chocolatiers and sweet makers available to cater to every dietary requirement, you’ll be sure to find the right treat to make your mum smile. Most companies will offer delivery for a small fee, or a collection date if the item is large and may be damaged. Be sure to order in plenty of time so that the bakers can get your treats ready for the big day. 

Flowers are another great way to make mum happy. A beautiful arrangement that compliments her home decor or contains her favourite flora will brighten the room and warm her heart.
