Mother’s Day is just a few days away – what will you be doing for this lovely holiday?
Whether you’re a mom who likes to plan or you’re a family member organizing a sweet surprise, we’ve got some family-friendly ideas on how to celebrate this special occasion.
High Tea” use_theme_fonts=”yes”>
Take tea time to the next level with a tea party! Have it indoors or out in the garden, dress up for the occasion, and serve sweet ‘n’ savory treats along with your favorite tea. (PS: Kiddos might want to invite their plush pals or dolls for an event like this!)
Picnic in the Park” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1673543889124{padding-top: 10px !important;}”>
A more casual alternative is a classic picnic. Pack a big blanket, food that doesn’t mind sunlight, some lemonade, books, or board games. Then head off to find a scenic spot in your neighborhood park, and eat, read, or play!
Scavenger Hunt” use_theme_fonts=”yes”>
Who says scavenger hunts are only for kids? If you’re thinking of organizing a fun activity for the mom in your life, we recommend hiding mini gifts around the house or hiding clues that lead to a bigger gift. Either way, it’s sure to B. fun!
Home Spa” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1673543914558{padding-top: 15px !important;}”>
You don’t need to go far in order to treat yourself spa-style! Slip on soft (and matching, for a touch of cuteness) bathrobes, apply kid-friendly face masks, put on some calming music, and reeeeelax.
Family Nap” use_theme_fonts=”yes”>
If you’re planning a jam-packed Mother’s Day, we recommend having a little nap in the middle. Family activities come with tons of fun, but a little sleep can go a long way (as many parents know). Get some zzzs, then gear up for Part 2 of the day!
Put your love in writing with a letter or lil’ notes! You can either write (or help kids write) an appreciation letter to the mom in your life or grab a big jar and encourage the whole family to drop in mini appreciation notes into it throughout the day.
Fruit Picking” use_theme_fonts=”yes”>
Fan of farms? Then spend the day picking fruits, veggies, or berries as a family! After soaking in the sun, you can head back and bake a sweet treat or use the veggies for a Mother’s Day dinner at home.
Want to head out for food instead, but can’t pick just one place? So, don’t! Instead, divide your restaurant experience into three – one restaurant for the appetizer, one for the main meal, and a last one for dessert!
Musical Party” use_theme_fonts=”yes”>
Celebrate Mother’s Day through song and dance! Rearrange some of the furniture to create a dance floor at home, play some fun tunes, and get grooving. Or pick your favorite songs to sing to and have a karaoke party with the whole family!
Snapshots to Scrapbook” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1673543999195{padding-top: 10px !important;}”>
Create a memento of the day the old school way – with an instant camera. Take turns capturing different moments from the day, then compile the printed images and make a scrapbook with them. It’s sure to make everyone smile for years to come!
Wishing you all a great Mother’s Day! (But know that you inspire us all year round.)
