Mother’s Day will be a little different this year..
below is a started list of ideas to help think of ways to celebrate it.
What’s important is time spent together, no matter 'how it happens'.
Feel free to share.
Flowers and brunch are still deliverable or can be picked up. Or do the traditional 'breakfast in bed' ..likely the *favorite amongst families with children
A Gardening kit consisting of plants / seeds / garden shovel / dirt / gloves
-Have a Picnic / BBQ in your backyard with a fun theme
Front porch drop offs of gift baskets ie ) books , baking goods , coffee /wine, specialty teas / treats...oh and chocolate
Have the kids make cards / posters. Send a hug through the mail to Gramma or a favorite Aunt ( a roll of Kraft paper can be picked up at a post office..have the child lay down to trace around / cut out and decorate before mailing ) Know that suggestion may be a little late in doing but who doesn’t love getting personal mail?!
At Home Spa Day: Plan a well-deserved spa day without leaving the house. Pick up or order some face masks, foot scrub, and bath bombs. Light some candles, download a spa playlist and make some cucumber water. Consider your house transformed and tranquil.
Do a Zoom visit to connect everyone. Share a virtual cooking / family meal online.
Have the kids interview Gramma with a few questions...and to take that a little further think what a cool Xmas gift this would be to have a Keepsake Grandparent/Grandchild Photo Book with pictures with some family history weaved through out it. Check out the video that was part of my 12 days of Christmas gift ideas.
