Sure, flowers and cards are lovely sentiments, but I went straight to the source—real moms—and asked them what they secretly hoped to get this year for Mother’s Day. 

Some of their answers might surprise you, and some might have you jumping up and down in agreement.

  1. A love letter from spouse/partner and the kids telling her what makes her so special to their family.
  2. Spa Day or Relaxation: Pampering moms with a spa treatment, massage, or even a DIY spa day at home can help them unwind and rejuvenate.
  3. Subscription Services: Subscription boxes tailored to mom’s interests, such as beauty products, gourmet foods, or gardening supplies, can provide ongoing joy throughout the year.
  4. Books or E-Readers: If mom loves to read, consider getting her a new book by her favorite author or a subscription to an e-reader service. For a romantic, intriguing escape, try theflowerletters.com. Each story takes place on the pages of intimate and personal letters sent between characters, drawing you into their hopes and dreams and the greater world around them. Sit back, make a cup of tea, and immerse yourself in this brand-new mailbox story experience.
  5. Meaningful experiences: Whether it’s tickets to a concert, a cooking class, or a weekend getaway, many moms appreciate experiences that create lasting memories with their families.
  6. Kitchen Gadgets or Cooking Classes: For moms who enjoy cooking or baking, high-quality kitchen gadgets or a cooking class can be a delightful and practical gift.
  7. A gift certificate to a favorite restaurant: To be saved and used for a night in the future when she doesn’t feel like cooking.
  8. A mother’s ring or necklace with the birthstones of all the children: Creating a gift represented in the jewelry and/or a recent, framed photo of all her children together—smiling is an extra bonus!
  9. Car Detail: This includes washing the outside and inside of the car (to remove all the juice boxes, wrappers, toys, clothing, Kleenex, and other paraphernalia that usually clutter Mom’s car). It also includes cleaning stains on seats and rugs, a full vacuum, and a new air freshener for good measure.
  10. Time Off: Sometimes, the best gift is simply giving mom a day off from her usual responsibilities, allowing her to relax, pursue her hobbies, or indulge in self-care without interruptions.
