Mother’s Day Ideas

Mother’s Day comes once a year, so it’s the perfect time to show her how much she means to you and to spoil her. Here are some fun, thoughtful ways to make your mom feel extra special this Mother’s Day.

Bring Her Breakfast in Bed

Treating your mom to breakfast in bed is a timeless way to start her day right. After all, moms are often the ones organizing everyone else, so this is your chance to give her a well-deserved break (if that’s you reading this, show it to your partner and/or kids now!).

Make it personal by selecting a mix of her favorite things – fruits, pastries, a smoothie, or the perfect cup of tea or coffee. Add a thoughtful touch by prepping a few special ingredients the day before. Presentation matters: arrange everything on a lovely tray with napkins, pretty crockery, her favorite mug, and perhaps a little vase of flowers or small plant.

A Special Mother’s Day Brunch

Alternatively, let her enjoy a peaceful morning with a book while you make a delicious brunch instead. Keep it simple with savoury options like poached eggs on toast or go all out with Eggs Florentine: poached eggs over smoked salmon and wilted spinach on an English muffin, topped with creamy hollandaise sauce.

If she prefers sweet, try fluffy pancakes with a citrus twist, served with fresh berries and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup. Whatever you choose, serve it beautifully—a tray with napkins and proper cutlery makes all the difference.

A Cherished Mother’s Day Lunch

Why not make it a family affair and take your mom out for a special lunch? This is a win-win: delicious food paired with quality time. Choose a restaurant she loves and consider adding a thoughtful twist by pairing the meal with a walk. Whether it’s a nearby park, forest trail, or a stroll through the city’s botanical gardens, this combination lets you celebrate her while creating lasting memories. The best part? No dishes to clean up afterward!

A Pamper Evening

Transform your home into a spa retreat for the evening. This is an activity younger kids can help with too! Create a cozy setup with face masks, makeshift manicure or pedicure stations, and spa menus that kids can design. Don’t forget to include refreshing mocktails for an extra treat. Dim the lights, play soothing music, and light a few hand-finished candles to complete the relaxing atmosphere. Ta-da! A five-star spa without leaving the house.

A Film Night

End Mother’s Day with a cozy movie night. Prep the lounge by arranging her favorite blankets and pillows, stock up on her go-to snacks, and pick a film you know she loves. This is a simple yet heartwarming way for the whole family to gather and spend time together. Bonus points for sneaking in some themed decorations to make the evening feel extra special.
