Pampering Mom on Mother’s Day!
Our Community by Sheila Turner-Hilliard
Making our mothers feel loved is so much easier than we could imagine. So why do we often find ourselves at a loss as to what to do for her or what gift to give? To show the special mom in your life how much you love her and how grateful you are for all she does, we’ve got a few ideas to pamper her in a special way.
Let Her Take the Day Off That’s right.
Give mom the gift she gives you every day by helping around the house. Make Mother’s Day a no cleaning, no cooking and no chores kind of day. Don’t let her do a single second of work because you’ve got that covered!
Book Mother’s Day Brunch
Her first meal of the day shouldn’t be anything less than scrumptious! Make reservations at the most delicious places in town. Many of our local restaurants are offering special Mother’s Day brunch, lunch and dinner menus. A fantastic meal is a perfect way to pamper mom (and you)! Look for Mother’s Day specials from these Newtown Square Friends & Neighbors Sponsors: Bright Spot Cafe, Casey’s Public House, Firepoint Grill and Rey Azteca Mexican Restaurant.
An Afternoon for Her
Once your stomachs are full, it’s time for the real fun! Does your mom dream of going to that great spa in town but doesn’t have the time? Does your mom want to go out shopping for those shoes she’s had her eye on? Or has she been asking for the family to join her on a nature hike? Whether it’s a group activity or simply giving her time to go to the gym by herself, the whole family should be on board to make the day exactly what she wants.
Gift Time
Just like on your birthday, there comes a special time of the day when you can expect to be showered with gifts. Why not give her that special moment on Mother’s Day as well? For the stylish mom, try giving her a new tote bag or a piece of jewelry with her children’s birthstones. Remember that moms also love homemade gifts like cards, drawings and homemade treats!
Spa and salon gift cards are always a good option, so head on over to Blush Salon and let mom choose the service that will make her happy. Other ideas are gift cards to her favorite nail salon, restaurant, shopping destination or her favorite place to have a girls’ night out.
Let’s face it: We owe a lot to our moms, and Mother’s Day is the perfect day of the year to show her how much you appreciate her and how much you care. A pampered mom is a happy mom — trust us!
