Breakfast in Bed
Breakfast in bed is a classic mother’s day idea. What’s more luxurious than coffee and croissants whilst wrapped up in your quilt? Maybe add a cheeky mimosa for even more luxury. It doesn’t have to be an elaborate 3-course breakfast extravaganza, even just scrambled eggs of toast would be a treat.
At home pamper day
Spas can be expensive so why not have one at home instead. From making your own facemasks to creating the spa atmosphere at home, this article has you covered. Read it here for some great ideas.
Picnic in the Park
With nice weather forecast, this weekend why not pack up a picnic and head out to your local park. The joy of picnics is that you can make them as complex or simple as you like. You could just pack up a few cheese sandwiches and packets of crisps or go all out and make sausage rolls, buns and more.
Take a family hike
what’s better than wandering around the great outdoors on a Sunday afternoon? You can look for local hiking trails online, you could even just wander around a local park. It’s a great free activity that gets you out of the house for a few hours of the day.
Have a games night
Talking of free options why not hunt down those old board games and spend the evening playing. Maybe not monopoly though, you don’t want to cause a family argument on mothers day.
Make her a paper bouquet
Flowers can be expensive especially when they have such a short life span so why not craft your mum some paper flowers. There are loads of step by step tutorials online for any and all skills levels.
Paint a pot
Paint a pot is a great way to spend time together whilst creating a unique gift. Many towns now have paint a pot places but if not, you could purchase some cheap pottery and paints online and do it at home.
Have an afternoon tea
If you’re a foodie, you’ve probably had your fair share of afternoon teas. You could book yourself a day out for an afternoon tea and put on your posh frocks. Or you could DIY it at home, make some mini cream cheese and cucumber sandwiches, pick up a few fruit scones and a Victoria sponge cake and you’re good to go
See a musical

Make her a hamper
