Everyone wants to feel special and loved every once in a while, and mothers, deserve every happiness in the world. While for most of us it is not possible to provide that happiness to our mothers every day, we can make sure to make Mother’s Day special for that perfect lady in our lives!

Chocolates and flowers are still the most sought-after Mother’s Day gift but if you want to find out what mothers actually want for Mother’s Day, here is a list of them.

Some Alone Time

This is probably one of the most sought-after Mother’s Day gifts and also the most requested one. Mothers keep the household from falling apart as a part of their duty and responsibility towards their children. Therefore, it is quite fair to give her a day off and go somewhere nice like a hotel and enjoy the day as she would like. From pampering time at the spa to a relaxing bubble bath, giving her some alone time is the right thing to do while dad takes care of the kids and household for a day.

Spend Time with Kids

The next thing that your Mother would love to do is spend some time with her kids. It can also double up as a nice time for bonding as mostly the tight schedule does not leave much space to wind up and spend quality time. Think of something that you and your mother would love to do together like catching up on a movie, play some board game, visit the zoo, go shopping … anything you can think of.

Feel Pampered

Make an appointment at the salon or spa and gift her relaxation and rejuvenation time. If it is out of budget, then plan the same thing at home. Clean the house, prepare a meal, and light some beautiful candles so that she feels relaxed. Draw her a bath with some soothing music. If she likes massage, then give her one – maybe a full body or a foot massage. Whatever you do, make sure she feels special for the day and do everything that she would have done for you. Also, make sure she gets her favourite drink while in the bath or when she is getting her massage.

 

Try Something New

Some moms have always wanted to do something fun, but never got the opportunity. Mother’s day could be their chance to do so and you can plan that for her. If there is something new in your town or city, which your mother always wanted to try like a new restaurant or a new cuisine maybe, get her to do that. Do your research to find the hidden gems of your city and plan a day to try out the new things which your mother would love to experience. Surprise her and you might never know, she will love the adventures you have planned for her.

Cook Her Something Special

You definitely know what your mother loves to eat so why not surprise her with her favourite meal. To make it extra special, try to cook it yourself. Pick out the dishes you want to serve and invest time and planning for a wonderful day. She will love that.

Let Her Know She Will Always Be Special

Acknowledgment – This is universal to all the mothers, acknowledging what they do for you and the family, all day, every day tirelessly, and without complaining. Caring for the family along with every little detail is something she does every day. Letting her know that you notice the love and hard work she puts in, is a big deal for her and there is no better day to let her know that the Mother’s Day.
