The 2020 Mother’s Day Gift Guide

Date:

Mother’s day is one of the most celebrated days throughout our calendar year. I mean, who doesn’t love their mom? Moms are like superheroes, between the cooking, cleaning, work, running kids/grandkids to here and there. They just seem to make the world go round so easily. So, how can you celebrate your mom this year and make her feel special even during the pandemic that is going on around the world? 

Now, if you’re like me and my family, mother’s day was always a nice dinner, gift and maybe a day for my mom at the spa. 

We have to put on our thinking caps and find a way to make this year’s mother’s day memorable despite social distancing, quarantine or being on lock down. 

Brunch In Bed 

Surprise your mom with a delish brunch, and to top it off bring it to her in bed. A quick, easy and yummy brunch is Egg Muffins. All you need is a muffin tin, eggs, and your mom’s favorite ingredients. This is one that will definitely show the love you hold for her. Cooking is the way to anyone’s heart. 

A Whole Day Off

This is her day, offer to take over the household duties for the day. Wash the dishes, clean the laundry, walk the dogs, dust, and if you really want to make her feel loved, sweep and mop.

DIY Gift Ideas

There are so many great DIY gifts out there. One of my favorites that I have made in the past for numerous occasions is a Sugar Scrub. These are so fun and very simple. If you have small kids, this would be a great project for them to create for their mother.

Skip The Card, Record a Video 

Switch it up this year, instead of a typical Mother’s Day card give her something she can look back on for years. Gather your siblings, or get them to send in personalized videos wishing your fabulous mom a Happy Mother’s Day. Check out Animoto for a quick free tutorial on how you can create a video.

Spa Day

Let’s be real, moms love the sweet thoughtful gifts but deep down they really want a day of relaxation. Sending our moms to a salon or spa isn’t an option now because of the COVID19. I was talking to my Aunt yesterday on the phone and she made the comment of how she is supporting small businesses. She might not be able to get in right now, but down the road she will. Call your local small businesses and find out if they are offering gift certificates for when they open back up. Your mom will get a spa day and you will be helping support a local business.  

Let’s not forget how truly special and amazing our moms are. They make the world go around, comfort us, make sure we are fed and love us unconditionally. They are truly amazing and deserve every bit of appreciation this Mother’s Day.
