7 Presents you Can Buy Mum For Mothering Sunday

For all the sacrifices she has made for the family, you’ll definitely agree with us that mum deserves only the best. With Mother’s Day coming up in the United Kingdom, make it an extra special holiday with these gift suggestions.

A Spotify Premium Subscription

A Spotify Premium Subscription lets her enjoy all her favorite songs, on the go. Set up her account for her, and while you’re at it, make a playlist of her favorite songs, as well as some musical gems you’d dedicate to her like “More Than A Woman” by the BeeGees, “Because You Loved Me” by Celine Dion, and “Mama” by the Spice Girls.

A Nixplay Frame

A Nixplay photo frame pre-loaded with mum’s favorite photos will make for a touching gift. It’s a timeless present that will delight her for years to come. Just make sure to keep it updated with your family’s latest photos!

A flowering plant

Does mum have a green thumb? A pretty plant that’s easy to care for will make for a lovely gift that will last a long time. Some orchids, perhaps, or a succulent in an adorable pot

Customized birthstone jewelry

A pretty trinket with birthstones of the members of your family will make for a delightful gift. Make sure to get jewelry made of non-tarnish metal so your mum’s skin wouldn’t be irritated!

A framed personalized print

Found an artist whose work you adore? Commission him or her to create a piece for mum! It can be a portrait of mum or an adorable illustration of your family. Make sure to get it professionally framed so it’ll last for a long time.

Scented candles

While some may dismiss scented candles as frivolous fire hazards, you have to admit that they add a touch of luxury and sophistication to any room. For Mother’s Day, splurge a bit on designer scented candles—the better for mum to relax with.

Great cookware

If mum loves to cook, spoil her with excellent cookware. A Le Creuset cast iron casserole, preferably in her favorite color, will ensure that you’ll be her favorite in the family (of course, your new status will be a secret between the two of you).

5 Simple Yet Brilliant Gift Ideas Any Mom Would Love To Get For Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day—the day we get to celebrate the original Wonder Woman in our own universe—is coming up in a week. If you already have a gift lined up, good for you! If not, this is your cue to start scrambling for the perfect present. It doesn’t have to be expensive, but it should be meaningful. These five Mother’s Day gift ideas are easy to pull off—add a bouquet of her favorite blooms and a handmade card to make her feel like the queen she really is:

Offer to do her chores.

No one—not even Mom—truly enjoys doing housework, especially on Mother’s day, a day when she’s supposed to be treated like royalty. Take the weight off her shoulders for a day by offering to do the cleaning in her stead: It’s a simple, priceless gesture that’ll truly make her day.

Make it better: Mothers need a break, too. Create “chore vouchers” that Mom can cash in so another family member can do a chore for her. Better yet, ditch the vouchers altogether and voluntarily take on a chore she usually does, like shopping for groceries or doing the laundry, for the rest of the year.

Let her spend uninterrupted quality time with the family.

Moms are some of the busiest people in the world: They’ve got children to chase, food to prepare, homes to clean, pets to take care of, and spouses to love. It’s not easy juggling all these in addition to her career and hobbies, so giving her the chance to bond with her family without worrying about her other obligations would be great. Remember to take lots of pictures!

Make it better: If the kids live away from home, it shouldn’t be a problem. A Nixplay frame can help bridge the distance: help Mom set it up so she can have her precious memories at her fingertips. Take advantage of Nixplay’s Mother’s Day offer to get 20 percent off on all Nixplay Wi-Fi Cloud Frames and 15 percent off on all NIX Digital Frames until May 13. Buy your own frame here.

Get the kids to clean up after themselves

A mother’s unconditional love for her children gives her the willpower to make sacrifices for them. She’d willingly forego vacations and shopping trips, just to be able to secure her kid’s future. The least the little ones can do is to help her out by minimizing the mess they create at home.

Make it better: Make tidying up more fun for the kids by making a game out of it! You can time them doing a specific task like organizing their toys, and you can give them small prizes if they beat their best time. Or you can sneakily get the tots to help during laundry day by making them race against each other to gather dirty clothes in a certain color. Do it regularly, and you’ll soon be surprised at how eager they’ll be to clean up.

A gift card for her favorite spa or salon.

If there’s one day in the calendar when Mom deserves to be spoiled, it’s Mother’s Day. Treat her to a massage at her favorite spa, or accompany her to the salon for a haircut and a mani-pedi date.

Make it better: Mom deserves to feel her best the whole year round. You can take her to Sephora or Ulta and have her pick out a product she’d really use and love. That way, she’ll remember you every time she uses it.

Treat her to a delicious home-cooked meal.

Give Mom a break from cooking, even if it’s just for one day! Get the whole family to help out in the kitchen: the younger kids can help prepare the food and set the table, the older kids can cook, and dad can do the groceries. Don’t forget to wash the dishes after!

Make it better: Why stop at Mother’s day? Set aside time every weekend to prepare a meal in Mom’s stead. Aside from being a great way to hone the little ones’ culinary skills, it’ll also give Mom some much-needed “Me” time.
