Mothers have it rough. From raising kids to managing their careers and homes, it is not easy being a mom.
So, this Mother’s Day, they deserve a little break. So, be sure to acknowledge all the mothers in your life – be it your own mom, your kids’ mom, your sister who has kids, or a friend with a newborn.
If you are scrambling for some gift ideas for all the moms in your life, you have come to the right place. We have put together a few ideas for Mother’s Day gifts for every type of mom in your life.
For The Coffee Loving Mom
If you are shopping for a mom who loves her coffee in the morning, there are coffee themes you can look out for when picking Mother’s Day hampers.
Pick a basket of delicious coffee samples from around the world for her to try out. Or, if she is really particular about her coffee, get her favourite coffee brand instead. You can add in a cute Mom-themed coffee mug to it and call it a day.
For The New Mothers
The challenging part about motherhood is that the job of being a mom is the hardest at the beginning. New moms deserve a lot of respect. The gestation period, the labour, the birthing, the sleepless nights, and the hourly feeding, only a mother could put up with all that and still be functional.
So, this Mother’s Day, get the new moms on your list a self-care gift hamper. Include some bubble bath salts, a nice restorative soothing lotion, and some essential oils for much-needed aromatherapy. If your budget allows it, put in a gift certificate to get her manicure and pedicure done, too, after she has soaked her tired hands and feet in the bubble bath.
For the Mom with the Sweet Tooth
Who doesn’t love a little something sweet to brighten their day? A mom with a sweet tooth would love that even more. Consider a gift basket full of fun cookies from her favourite bake shop. Or perhaps some biscuits with all the fancy names for her to indulge in on Mother’s Day. Add in a mug with some instant hot cocoa powder to enjoy with her cookies.
For the Moms Who Get Together
If the busy mom in your life gets some free time, she will likely want to get a girl’s night in with some of her best girls. If you have such a mom on your list, get a gift hamper that will help her entertain her friends on Mother’s Day (or the weekend coming up after it).
Include some preserves, jams (homemade is better), some salty snacks, and cured meats and cheeses, perhaps. Add in a bottle of chardonnay or some sparkling wine for a little more fun.
For the Moms with a Chocolate Addiction
After the hectic and nearly impossible workday schedules, moms deserve all the dopamine they can get from chocolate. If a mom on your list loves her chocolate, then chocolate has to be part of her gift.
Get a gift basket full of some fancy chocolate bars. Include some dark chocolate with some exotic ingredients like the ones with red chili and dark chocolate or sea salt and dark chocolate combinations.
Get her an entire month’s supply so she can enjoy Mother’s Day month (and not just the day).
For The Eco-Conscious Moms
Moms often worry about the world their kids will grow into someday. If the mom on your list cares about the environment and the ecosystem, consider a theme that will be eco-conscious. Perhaps a hand-loomed gift basket that she can reuse for smart storage. Add in some eco-friendly fair-trade products that also care about the people who made the products. Pick only the ethically sourced products for this mom.
For Moms who are Mindful
Any gift that focuses on self-care is a great gift for moms. Moms need to be in top mental and emotional health to raise healthy and well-balanced kids.
For moms who are into practising mindful meditation, get them a gift basket with all the essentials for their meditation. Get them a set of essential oils that help relax the mind along with an infuser. Perhaps get her some dried lavender for her bedside table, and also get her a book on mindfulness.
For Moms Who Destress via The Culinary Arts
If the mom on your list loves to destress by indulging in creating some culinary delights, then this theme is for them.
Consider a gift basket with a sushi-making kit with the finest ingredients or a sourdough-making kit for her to bake some fresh bread rolls. Alternatively, how about a mustard-making kit for her to make her own condiments. Speaking of condiments, a grow-and-make DIY hot sauce kit is a perfect gift for moms who love it spicy.
Let her mind relax as she creates these beautiful culinary creations, and who knows, you might score an invite from her in the near future to try out some of her culinary, artistic creations over dinner.
