Your mother is a very special person, so Mother's day is a great day to spoil her and thank her for all her hard work. This, however, does not mean that you have to eat a heavy, rich meal and present her with boxes of chocolates! This year keep it light...

Alternative activities:

  • Take mom for a walk somewhere that has a beautiful view.

  • Plan a weekend away that includes camping, hiking or kayaking.

  • Pack a picnic and go somewhere special.

  • Plan a healthy breakfast or brunch and do all the cleaning up yourself!

  • Give her a set of vanilla scented candles.

  • A voucher for a manicure, pedicure or massage.

  • A bunch of flowers.

  • Get some beautiful beads and make some jewellery.

  • Buy her a novel or favourite magazine.
