Mother’s Day 2024: Planning For More Than a Gift? Here’s How to Make Your Mom Feel Special

Mother’s Day Activities: Mother’s Day reminds us of showering our moms with love and care, not just a day, but every single day. Mother’s Day is celebrated annually every second Sunday of May, and this year, the special day will be celebrated on 12th May, a perfect opportunity to pamper our beloved mothers who are the pillars of strength, resilience, nurture, and protection. They make sure to provide us with everything in and out of their capabilities so that we can fly high. A small gift or a surprise party may make her happy, but what a mother cherishes will be the precious moments and time that you will spend with her, depsite how much busy you are. Here are some of the best ideas to spend time with your mother if you are planning to do more than just a gift. 

Mother’s Day Activities

No Work, Only Chill

Many of us are busy spending all of our time working, eating, and sleeping, and no more conversations with our families, especially our mums. With all due respect, take a one-day leave (Casual? Sick? Whatever!) and make sure to help your mom with household stuff, making lunch, cutting fruits, and everything that she would do for you in a day. Only gifts are not the only way to make her smile, a helping hand will be much more than that! No person in the world will ever say no to you for spending time with your mother, not even your boss!

Good Ol’ Memories

Sit down and take out all your childhood photos, albums, and recordings, make a cup of tea or refreshing juice, and talk about the unforgettable memories you shared with your mom and your family with laughs, mischief, and emotions. A mom always cherishes her children’s childhood and the process of getting older, this will make her Mother’s Day better than ever!

Movies are Magic

Everyone has a favourite genre or movie they can watch repeatedly. Book tickets, or watch her favourite movie together, prepare a snack board or whatever meal you prefer, and share laughter and build new memories with your mama, giving her the “me time” she never received in the midst of keeping you happy. 

Garden Play

Every mom loves to nurture, whether it is her children or her lovely plants. Make a list, bring her plants, and help her grow those little ones while spending some quality time. Meanwhile, you will gain a lot of knowledge about the plants, which could ignite your curiosity and encourage you to learn a new hobby. 

To-Do Spree

Many of us are so busy in our lives that there are times when our mother asks us to bring something or any decor-related thing but it slipped our mind. Don’t worry, this is a perfect time. Make a to-do list with her for all the necessary things required for your home, ask her suggestions on how to renovate the home decor, bring all the materials, and help her in recreating your home according to her preference. This is just like a therapy and calm activity that will also help you get a break from all your ongoing work-related issues and stress. 

Regular Medical Checkup

Our mothers always keep their health at least a priority while managing the house and other things, making them neglect their bodies. The best thing that you can do is to book an appointment with the doctor for her full body checkup, all necessary tests, and everything vital for their health. From eye checkups to hemoglobin tests, make sure your mother is keeping up with her health with all the vitamins, minerals, and nutrients required to run the body, because she is “Mum in a Million!!”
