Mother's Day - 10 Great Mother's Day Gift Ideas

Most Mums really do deserve a treat on Mother's Day. Whether you decide to splash out on them or treat them to a day of pampering they've earned it. Here are some great ideas they cannot fail to love.


  1. Take her out to lunch to her favourite hotel or restaurant or better still invite her round and cook lunch for her. If you're a Mum yourself that's the last thing you'll want to be offering so then it's probably the first option. All women who have to cook on a regular basis love to have a meal prepared for them. They also love the not thinking about what to have, shopping for it and clearing up after.


  2. Book her a manicure, facial, massage or reflexology treatment and make her go. No end of vouchers have languished in my Mother's drawer until nagged so mercilessly by me she gets around to making an appointment. She always has a lovely time.


  3. Breakfast in bed served on a breakfast set just for her - small teapot, lovely tea cup and saucer, milk jug and breakfast plate.


  4. A day out with you somewhere you think she'd love to go - shopping, a spa day, the garden centre, the cinema or a walk in the woods followed by a pub lunch.


  5. If she's the Mother of small children she'd love some time to herself. Time to lie a little longer in bed, have an undisturbed bath and read that magazine or book that she'd been promising herself, not cook meals and wriggle out of bath and bed at the end of the day (perhaps a kiss for each child at bedtime before getting back to that sofa for the evening screening of HER favourite film). Really the idea is to be off-duty.


  6. A make-up lesson - update her make up and take years off her (and treat her to some of that magic underwear if you think she'd like it and not be offended).


  7. A pile of paperbacks you know she'll adore plus a box of her favourite chocolates to enjoy with them.


  8. Help her choose plants for the garden and then plant them for her or buy her a tree for a favourite spot.


  9. Hearts pottery to show how much you love her.


  10. If all else fails then you cannot go wrong with the old favourites - flowers and perfume.

Father's Day

By: Andrea Cox | 04/02/2008 | Gifts
Easter is a lovely holiday. It's like Christmas without the pressure of weeks of shopping and catering preparations. It also marks the beginning of spring; a change in season that is always welcome, particularly when the weather is expected to improve. The days are getting longer and brighter and outside is less bleak. Leaves are budding on the trees, bulbs are starting to peek through the muddy flower beds and your cat starts hunting again (those poor baby birds).
