Five Things You Can Do to Make Mother’s Day Memorable
by Carolyn Lee May 5, 2025

Most mothers look forward to receiving tangible gifts or being treated lovingly on Mother’s Day. We know finding the right gift is crucial, and we have a few things you can do to thank your mom for all she does. Here are some things that might make her day memorable this year.
How to make this Mother’s Day memorable
Use her love language: Does she love receiving tangible gifts, or would she be more excited to have brunch with her family at her favourite restaurant? If mom loves words of affirmation, write her a letter or poem expressing what she means to you. Some acts of service that could make mom happy include getting an at-home facial, a warm bath, or being served breakfast in bed.
Celebrate for a week: In addition to your official plans, you cangive mom little gifts in the days leading up to Mother’s Day. Surprise her by doing some of her chores, leaving her a thoughtful handwritten note, sending her your favourite picture of her, or putting little gifts in strategic places to make her smile. A week filled with sweet treats and sentiments will let Mom know you are excited to celebrate her.
Be present: Be intentional with your plans for her day so you can capitalise on spending quality time with her. Take care of the menial tasks the days before so you can focus on seamlessly executing your Mother’s Day plans. Remember to cancel plans for other events or with friends that don’t include her. Mom has made many sacrifices and will appreciate you going the extra mile for her and your family.
Capture the moments: Some of the most beautiful memories are created randomly. As the day unfolds, capture precious moments with your loved ones. Documenting the meaningful moments of her day will give Mom a lifetime of memories she can smile about. You can create a virtual album with your favourite photos of her from that day as a gift.
Let her chill: On Mother’s Day, let her sleep in and treat her to breakfast in bed. She can relax until you’re ready to give her other gifts. Ensure that she has things she loves. Remember to monitor the time so you remain on schedule for the activities you have planned for her.
