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.
