With Mother’s Day Sunday, I wanted to share some low budget gift ideas. I love my mom. She’s one of my biggest supporters and somebody I can go to with almost anything. We are a lot alike, which sometimes isn’t always great. We spend a lot of time together, so most of these ideas are things we would like. Most of these ideas are things that can’t be bought, but more on the emotional side. Hope these ideas help!
- Bake something- Most people like at least some kind of sweet. My mom loves lemony desserts so I usually end up making her something in that nature. Even if you’re not the best baker, try anyways. You don’t have to go super fancy. She’ll love that its homemade and not something you just went to the store and bought pre-made.
- Cook her a meal- A lot of moms are cooking almost all the time. They get tired of it at times. I know my mom does. Give her a day off this Mother’s Day.
- Spa Day- Give your mom a day of pampering. I’ve done this with my mom many times and its great getting to see her relax. Do a face mask, eye patches, and some other simple skincare and you’re set. If you’re not one to do skincare on another person, make her a little spa basket and have her make time for herself that day.
- See a movie- You can either go out and see a movie together (depending on comfort and restrictions of course!), or make some popcorn and watch a movie inside. This isn’t the most crazy idea, but she’ll get to spend time with you.
- Play a game- My family plays a lot of board games together. We love spending time together this way. Pick out a game your mom likes to play, even if its a childhood favorite of hers. Then just have the ultimate game day together.
Those are all of my ideas! Every mom is different and likes different things. Figure out something your mom likes and enjoy it with her. Moms do a lot for us and they deserve a day to just relax and enjoy themselves. You don’t have to go all out to make a person happy. Sometimes the simplest gifts have the most meaning.
Thank you so much for reading! Until next time.
