Thoughtful Gifts for Mom

Mother’s Day is just around the corner, but it may be time to ditch the candles and gift cards—Mom deserves more.

Handmade Gift

No age is too old to get crafty for your Mom or Mother figure. There are tons of useful items that are easy to make by hand, like candles, soaps, and even baked clay earrings. Most craft stores have pre-made kits that contain everything you need for these projects, and your Mom is sure to enjoy the love and care you put into any craft!

Family Activity

Most Moms will tell you that they don’t want “stuff,” they want memorable experiences with their family. Scan Groupon for local deals on fun family activities such as axe throwing, dinner cruises, bowling nights, hotel stays, and even escape rooms.

Hot Tub

For the busy Mom, nothing says “we love you” like the gift of peace and relaxation. Traditional acrylic hot tubs are heavy, bulky, require dedicated wiring, and can cost up to $10,000! Freeflow Spas has a line of durable, affordable, and portable hot tubs full of hydrotherapy jets that still supply Mom with the full hot tubbing experience. The 4-person Azure Premier is sure to impress.

Photoshoot

For a unique gift, consider surprising Mom with a professional photo session with a local photographer. Gather the family together, throw on your best outfits, and make your way somewhere pretty. The photos will last forever, and you’re sure to make memories during the shoot!

When you’re shopping for Mom this year, put down the candles and throw the pre-made greeting cards away. Spend the extra time on gifts that show her how much you love and appreciate her!
