Top 5 Mother's Day Gift Ideas

Mother’s Day is just around the corner. Believe us when we say these occasions have a way of sneaking up on us. That’s why it’s never a bad idea to start thinking of some Mother’s Day gift ideas with plenty of time to spare.

Maybe you’re celebrating a new mum, a mum-to-be or a mum who’s seen and heard it all before. No matter what kind of mother you’re celebrating, here are some Mother’s Day gift ideas to put a smile on her face.

1. Personalised Blanket

A personalised blanket from Blankids is a gift for both mum and bub. We like to think that a child’s connection to the blanket is almost as strong as their mother. This year, help mother and child strengthen their bond with a personalised blanket they can share. Choose from a range of designs, including flowers, animals and mermaids, and include their names on the reverse side.

2. Boozy Brunch

Every mother needs a break and what better way to unwind than with a boozy brunch among friends and family. Host it at someone’s house or book a private room at your favourite restaurant. What matters most is that the cocktails are flowing and all the mums in the room can let their hair down. We recommend checking out these Mother’s Day cocktails for inspiration.

3. High Tea

Nothing says class and glamour on Mother’s Day quite like a sophisticated high tea. Pair refreshing teas with a range of delicious finger sandwiches, pastries, jam and cream scones and sweet treats. If you need a little extra pop in your day, opt for a bottle of champagne instead of tea.

4. Picnic

Throwing a picnic is a classic Mother’s Day gift idea. Especially for mothers who love bringing family and friends together for a fun and relaxed day outside. Compile an epic picnic basket with a range of sweet and savoury snacks. Don’t forget about a sprawling, soft blanket, ball games for the kids and plenty of wine and champagne for the mothers.

5. Staycation

A staycation is the perfect Mother’s Day gift idea for mothers who need a break from home but don’t want to go too far. If you’re working with a budget, try setting up a campsite in the backyard. If you want to splurge, book a room at a swanky hotel nearby and give her all the pampering she deserves. We highly recommend booking a spa hotel with the full treatment menu at her fingertips.
