Mother's Day is such a cherished opportunity to show your mum, wife, grandmother or important mother-figure, just how significant she is to your life.
Beyond the Mother's Day gifts for mum, or the grand gestures, Mother’s Day holds a special place in our hearts here at Koh Living. It’s a day we treasure spending with our own mothers, and for those of us who are mothers, it’s a time for letting the rest of the world drift away and just focusing on the significance of our own motherhood journeys.
Whether you’ll be spending Mother’s day with your mum, as a mum, or with another significant figure who played the role of a mum in your life, what’s truly important about the day is that your special person feels loved, appreciated, and truly honoured, and our team has a few tips to help you make that happen.
Understanding Mum: The Key To Perfect Gifting For Mother’s Day
The first step in planning the perfect Mother's Day is to really understand what your mum loves. Does she enjoy outdoor activities, or would she prefer a quiet day at home? Is she a foodie who loves experimenting with new recipes, or does she treasure sentimental gifts over all else? Knowing her preferences is key to tailoring the day's activities and gifts for mum, that suit her perfectly.
The perfect Mother’s Day plan requires thought, creativity, and an understanding of what makes your mum happy. Every mum is unique, and her day should be as unique and special as she is. Whether she loves the tranquillity of a day at home, the adventure of exploring new places, or the joy of spending quality time with her loved ones, our team has put together some tips to make your mum’s day the best day ever this year.
Best Ideas For Mother’s Day 2024
Mother’s Day Breakfast in Bed
Start the day by surprising her with breakfast in bed. This isn't just about the food, but the gesture of care and thoughtfulness. Whether it's her favourite pancakes or a gourmet omelette, make sure it's presented beautifully to start the day on a high note. Add a little love note, or a delightful flower picked straight from the garden.
The true secret to the perfect mother’s day breakfast in bed, is that we promise mum won’t mind even if it’s the most basic of cereal in a bowl with her favourite cup of coffee, it’s truly all about spending time with you.
Outdoor Activities To Do With Your Mum
If you’ve got an adventurous mum, grandma, wife, or mum figure, it might be a great idea to head into the great outdoors for some exploration. Spoil her by planning a day out in nature. It could be a hike to a waterfall, a visit to a botanical garden, or something as simple and relaxing as a picnic in the park. Be sure to choose activities that align with her interests and physical comfort level.
Spoil Mum With A Spa Day at Home
Create a relaxing spa experience at home with DIY facials, massages, and a soothing bath. It's a wonderful way to help her unwind and feel pampered without leaving the house.
Our delightful Koh skincare range is the perfect pamper gift for mum and will help make a spa day at home truly spectacular. 100% Australian made, our skincare range features Australian ingredients that are nourishing and beautifully aromatic.
Book A Family Photo Session
Capture the memories of this special day with a family photo session. Whether you hire a professional or do it yourselves, choose a location that is meaningful to your family. If you’re not able to book a photo session for Mother’s Day, then a gift voucher to use at a later date will also work well. This is a perfect gift idea for first time mums for mother's day especially.
Mum’s Movie Marathon
If your mum prefers to stay indoors and loves nothing more than a good movie marathon, Mother’s Day is the perfect day to join her on the couch for some together time. Make this an experience of perfection by including some homemade popcorn and comfy blankets, chocolates and her favourite snacks and make a day or night of it.
Mother/Child Crafting Session
This is the perfect way to spend the day together for mums and children of all ages. Got a craft that mum’s always wanted to try? Why not grab some supplies and get creating together?
A truly beautiful part of this thing to do with mum on mother’s day is that you can create something special for each other and exchange it as a beautiful memory. We recommend choosing projects that are fun and easy to do, creating beautiful keepsakes of your time spent together.
