love this idea!! Now’s your chance to take the kids to Target or the Dollar Store and go nuts. Pick a theme (like spa day or baking) and choose little items to fit into the glass container. It’ll look pretty and the container is a part of the gift, too!

Now, let’s talk about some ways to spend the day with Mom/Grandma!!

1.) take Mom on a “vacation” – mom’s favorite food Mexican? create a fiesta indoors or out! Mom always wanted to go to Paris? create a cute little French bistro- Get some croissants for breakfast, pack a picnic lunch of French bread, cheese, and fruit, or order a meal from your favorite deli or restaurant. Or if Mom just wants to pretend she is on a tropical vacay- serve her a drink with a cute umbrella, decorate with flowers, and turn the backyard into a little oasis!

2.) If the weather isn’t cooperating- create an indoor movie day(letting mom pick the movie, no matter how cheesy/romantic it is!) pop some popcorn, turn off the lights, and enjoy some family time!

3.) Send Mom away for a bit- whether it’s to get her nails done, get a massage, or just go somewhere to read a book/shop at Target 😉 send mom off with a plan to not come home until a few hours!

4.) Schedule some family pictures!! Moms are always alwaysssss the one taking the pics- and it’s very hard for us to get in those pics, take the initiative and schedule some family pics to be taken OR take some pics of Mom with her kiddos yourself!

5.) For older Mom/Daughter combos- take a flower arranging class together, or a cooking class, or even one of those painting and wine classes! something just for the two of you!

6.) a classic- breakfast in bed! or brunch in bed — after she sleeps in, then enjoy pancakes/waffles and snuggles! Don’t forget the coffee and/or mimosas!

7.) Plan a picnic in the park or by the water! pack all of the essentials and take mom for an outdoor picnic!

*whatever you choose to do, whether it’s all out or simple- reminding Mom just how much you love her and appreciate her will do just fine! 🙂

make sure that she feels like the….
