Yes dads, husbands, partners its mother’s day this weekend so let’s hope you have remembered. If not, then don’t panic you still have a few days to get organised. You don’t have to spend a lot in order to make it a memorable day out there for those mothers who give their kids the world every single day of the year. It’s not about how much you spend or what you get it’s about making the day all about Mum.
How about getting the kids involved and help them to prepare breakfast in bed for mum followed by a big kiss and cuddle and those are the memories that will last a long time. Yes, a bunch of flowers and chocolates are nice but if the budget is tight how about you think of other inventive ways to ensure mum receives the best day.
Get the kids to do the house chores for the day e.g. cleaning their rooms, getting the vacuum out, doing the dishes, all those jobs we take for granted every day that mum does how about you encourage the kids to take the initiative and do them first. You could even find out what mums favourite meal is and get the kids to help cook up her favourite meal with a nicely set table and maybe even candles.
Homemade gifts always go a long way, they are sentimental and show a lot more thought and appreciation. Ideas such as a photo frame with your favourite picture in of the kids and mum, or a trinket box so she can store her special things in. Dads out there if you are stuck for ideas, go to Handimania website and find out inventive gift and creative ideas, get the kids involved and make something creative and memorable that mum can have. There’s an abundant of ideas on the internet, use them. The best thing is, all of this doesn’t have to break the budget.
We are lucky that our mothers are still here so we can show our appreciation, take a moment to remember all the brave and courageous mothers out there who may have passed on and ensuring their children can still enjoy the special day remembering their loved ones.
