Want to celebrate Mother’s Day with the perfect present for Mom this year? If you’re looking for a gift she will love, check out these seven ideas that might do the trick.

What many moms really want on Mother’s Day is to know how much you love and appreciate them — but a nice present certainly won’t hurt! In fact, a thoughtful gift is a great way to show just how much she means to you. Go for something a little different than the typical flowers and chocolate and consider one of these unique options.

Photo Album

Since virtually all of our photographs are created and stored digitally nowadays, it’s becoming rarer to have printed copies. Getting photos developed is a great way to save and highlight some special memories. Gift your mom a photo album or another thoughtful photo gift with some of her favourite family pictures.

Polaroid Camera

If your mom likes having physical copies of the pictures she takes, she might appreciate a Polaroid camera. These convenient cameras that print the photo right after you take it are back in style and provide endless fun at family gatherings. She can capture the memories right as they are happening.

Subscription Box

There’s a subscription box for everything nowadays, including books, clothes, food, sweets, tech gadgets, coffee, bath products, and more. Think about products that your mom uses regularly and see if you can sign her up to receive a subscription box that delivers a new surprise on a regular basis throughout the year.

Local Artwork

Moms who appreciate and support local art will love a piece from a local artist. You can find local art at art galleries and even sometimes at coffee shops, especially those that are locally owned. Of course, you’ll want to consider your mom’s taste and style before picking the perfect piece.

Paint Night

Sticking with the art theme, why not give mom an experiential gift and take her to a paint night? These events usually include following along with an artist to make your own masterpiece that you can then take home to hang up. It’s a great chance to spend some time together as well.

Donation in Her Name

If your mom has a cause that is near and dear to her heart, why not make a donation in her honour? Head to the website of a charitable organization that you know she either already supports or would like to support, leave a donation, and fill in her name instead of yours.

Family Tree

Mother’s Day presents a wonderful opportunity to celebrate family and your mom’s place in her family tree. First, do a bit of genealogy research. Then, if you’re feeling crafty or artsy, you can make a family tree yourself. If you’re not really into arts and crafts, you can always get one custom-made.

This Mother’s Day, give her a gift she will remember. From photo albums to an experience like paint night to a heartwarming family tree, there is a great option for every mom.
