This way if case last minute changes in public health guidelines make your initial plans unlikely to happen, you&#8217;ll have a solid plan B to fall back on and mom will still have a stellar Mother&#8217;s Day. The moms in our lives deserve the world. No. More than the world\u2026 They deserve the universe. And at the very least, they deserve to spend Mothers Day doing something special, fun, and unique to their personality. Some moms want nothing more than to sit back, sip a cocktail, and enjoy some serenity. While other moms would love something a bit more exciting like a hike or bungee jumping. Every mom is different so when you\u2019re making plans for this year\u2019s Mother\u2019s Day keep her unique preferences and personality in mind.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/hugging_mom.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15177\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/hugging_mom.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/hugging_mom-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/hugging_mom-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<div class=\"block-blurb\">\n<p>Send mom a really nice Mother\u2019s Day card in minutes.

And regardless of what your family looks like, this list has Mother\u2019s Day activities for adults and families with children alike.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t forget to keep mom\u2019s likes and dislikes at the top of mind when making arrangements. Remember \u2014 just because you love a long hike doesn\u2019t mean mom will and vice versa. If mom loves to hike and you don\u2019t, suck it up.

Go to the spa.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Research a local spa and schedule mom some well deserved me time. If you want to make it a girl\u2019s day \u2014 that would work too (and you get a little pampering out of it too). This is a simple activity that requires basic planning &#8212; just make a reservation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Take her out for a meal.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Make this just a mother-daughter\/son activity or have the whole family, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/cards\/holidays\/mothers-day-for-grandma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Grandma<\/a> because it&#8217;s her day too, join in on the fun. You can make this a Mother\u2019s Day brunch or dinner. Lots of flexibility here based on what you think mom would like best. Make a reservation at mom\u2019s favorite local spot. If mom is the adventurous type, do some research and find a new location you think mom would enjoy.&nbsp;<br><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"701\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/out_to_eat.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Go camping!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If mom is the kind of gal who enjoys time outdoors, there\u2019s no better way to spend quality time with the entire family than pitching a few tents and roasting some marshmallows around the fire. It lets mom get away from the house so she doesn\u2019t feel the need to clean or cook and it\u2019s the perfect way to spend time bonding as a family. Make sure mom is the one to sit back and relax while the rest of the family prepares all the camping goodies like food and tools. Invite another family to join the fun to make it a social event (just ask mom for her preference first).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Breakfast in bed \u2014 the oldest Mother\u2019s Day activity in the book.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s simple and oh so traditional. Let mom sleep in while you make some of her favorites. Need some ideas? Try one of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/38913984259503024\/\">these<\/a> recipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"724\" height=\"483\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/breakfast_in_bed.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15181\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/breakfast_in_bed.jpg 724w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/breakfast_in_bed-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 724px) 100vw, 724px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Book a private yoga session.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Does mom practice yoga? Going to a yoga class is wonderful and maybe that\u2019s the thing you\u2019ll want to do this Mother\u2019s Day, but consider something a bit more special. Hire a private yoga teacher (that you know mom would love) to come to the house to give her a one-on-one on the morning or afternoon of Mother\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"724\" height=\"483\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/yoga.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15183\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/yoga.jpg 724w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/yoga-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 724px) 100vw, 724px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><strong>Outdoor alternative<\/strong>: Book a private for you and mom outside at your favorite local park or even the backyard.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Have a picnic.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Everyone loves a good picnic, right? If mom loves the outdoors, this is a great option to enjoy some treats surrounded by nature. Pack all the finger goodies you can think of, a cute blanket and maybe a small flower vase as the centerpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><strong>Indoor alternative<\/strong>: If you don\u2019t live in a climate that\u2019s conducive to outdoor picnics on Mother\u2019s Day\u2026 You can still have a picnic indoors. Move some furniture to make extra floor space. Lay down the blankets and bring out the picnic basket. Recreate the experience indoors for a special meal.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Get active with mom!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If mom loves to get sweaty, why not spend some time doing just that. Take the family bikes down to the park or to the nearest trail. Take a run with mom around the neighborhood to start the day sweating together or simply go for a long walk at a state park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Go bungee jumping.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Is mom more adventurous than you\u2019d ever hope to be? This activity will not be the most common, to be sure, but it\u2019s very likely that there are moms out there itching for some heart pumping adventure. Bungee jumping would certainly check those boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/NOTEWORTHY198.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15184\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/NOTEWORTHY198.png 600w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/NOTEWORTHY198-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/NOTEWORTHY198-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"button-cta horizontal\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/cards\/holidays\/mothers-day\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">See Mother&#8217;s Day Cards<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Take a trip to the farmer\u2019s market.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a lovely place to spend a morning \u2014 browsing flowers, munching on farm-fresh snacks and maybe doing a little shopping for the evening\u2019s dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. Help mom out in the garden.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If mom loves nothing more than getting her hands dirty with some planting, give her a helping hand. Help her with whatever tasks need to be done and enjoy spending time together. She\u2019ll appreciate your help and the quality time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"724\" height=\"482\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/family_garden.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15186\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/family_garden.jpg 724w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/family_garden-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 724px) 100vw, 724px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">11. Start a family garden.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ok so maybe mom doesn\u2019t already have a garden of her own, but you\u2019ve heard her talk about wanting one. This is your chance to help make it happen! Get the whole family involved and spend the day building out a little family garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">12. Soak by the Pool.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you live in Florida \u2014 or really any southern state where May is already in full blown summer mode \u2014 give mom a nice relaxing day by the pool. If you have one of your own or know someone who does, plan for all the moms in your lives to spend a day just taking in the sun by the pool. Prepare some fruity cocktails mom can enjoy and bring all sorts of yummy snacks to her side as random delights throughout the day. Family pool time is a lovely way to let mom relax and still spend time with everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><strong>Pro tip:<\/strong> If you live in a city with nice hotels, many times you could book a day fee to relax by their pool. Do some research to see if this is available in your area.&nbsp;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">13. Dinner and a movie.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes the old faithful date ideas are winners. When was the last time you went to see a film with mom? Let mom choose the movie and don\u2019t forget the popcorn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">14. Volunteer together.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a ton of volunteer opportunities in most towns. You\u2019ll need to do some pre-planning to see what is available. Perhaps there is a beach or lake clean-up or an opportunity to read at your local library\u2019s story time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whatever way you choose to give back \u2014 do it together. Volunteering as a family will give you something extra special to bond over and you might even want to make it a yearly tradition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"724\" height=\"483\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/volunteer.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/volunteer.jpg 724w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/volunteer-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 724px) 100vw, 724px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">15. Create something together.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Is mom crafty? Brainstorm some ideas with her ahead of time on what she might enjoy making. Prepare all the tools in advance\u2014 paper\/canvas\/paint\/coloring pencils etc. \u2014 and lay out all the goodies so that mom doesn\u2019t need to participate in the prep (or clean up).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">16. Go to the beach.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although summer hasn\u2019t quite graced us with her presence, spring has definitely sprung! Why not enjoy the beauty that the beach has to offer without the blistering heat? It\u2019s the perfect location to get some family quality time (what mom really wants).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to have a plan B in case the weather is not cooperating on Mother\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/beach.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15188\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/beach.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/beach-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/beach-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">17. Turn mom\u2019s story into a book.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Everyone has a life story worth knowing and mom is no exception. Combine arts and crafts with a little research and a whole lot of quality time for a day of helping to re-create mom\u2019s story. Use old family photos, mom\u2019s own recollections and the internet (full of family history tidbits). Make a sort of life-story-book for (and with) mom. She\u2019ll love getting to re-tell some of her favorite memories and you\u2019ll get to know her even more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">18. Visit a winery.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Because nothing says \u201cI love you mom\u201d like treating her to endless delicious wine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"724\" height=\"483\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/winery.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15190\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/winery.jpg 724w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/winery-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 724px) 100vw, 724px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">19. Try a new recipe.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Have a fun recipe you and mom have been dying to try out? Why not do it together? This only counts as a good idea if mom actually likes to cook and isn\u2019t constantly in the kitchen. This shouldn\u2019t feel like another chore. No matter what, make sure to be the one that does all the prep and clean up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">20. Day trip surprise!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Catch mom off-guard with a spontaneous (well, sort of) family day trip somewhere nearby. Make sure to plan the day accordingly so you\u2019re not completely winging Mother\u2019s Day. Know the route, how long it will take, where you\u2019ll be spending the day and the best places to eat (and maybe even make reservations).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/HELLOPAPER244.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15191\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/HELLOPAPER244.png 600w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/HELLOPAPER244-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/HELLOPAPER244-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"button-cta vertical\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/cards\/holidays\/mothers-day\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">See Mother&#8217;s Day Cards<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">21. Start a pen-pal tradition with mom.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ok, so this shouldn\u2019t be the only thing you do this Mother\u2019s Day, but a fun little addition to the special day. Suggest you and mom become pen-pals and see if you can do it for a whole year. Save the letters and cards you send to each other throughout the year to read the following Mother\u2019s Day (maybe even the start of next year\u2019s Mother\u2019s Day craft).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a great option for long distance families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">22. Have a photoshoot.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Capture this Mother\u2019s Day with some beautiful photos and make a whole day out of it. Prepare by hitting up a salon (or do the dollying up at home) and getting mom all jazzed up. Mimosas are always a good addition. Hire a local photographer in advance to help capture the fun and loving mom you all know and love. You can make it all about mom if you think she\u2019d love that or turn it into a family photo-esque day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/POSTABLE1717.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15192\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/POSTABLE1717.png 600w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/POSTABLE1717-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/POSTABLE1717-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"button-cta vertical\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/cards\/holidays\/mothers-day\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">See Mother&#8217;s Day Cards<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">23. Take mom on a shopping spree.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Take mom on a shopping spree where you help pick out things for her. Help her try things on, pick out outfits and make her feel like the special queen you know she is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">24. Visit a museum.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Does mom appreciate learning more about Degas or Van Gogh? Perhaps she\u2019s just really into art history. Chances are she doesn\u2019t have much room in her already busy schedule to go to a museum just for fun. Book a private tour of her favorite wing or type of art to make it even more special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">25. Go for a hike.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Does mom really* love the outdoors? What better way than to take her on that trail she\u2019s been eyeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"724\" height=\"483\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/hike.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15193\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/hike.jpg 724w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/hike-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 724px) 100vw, 724px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">26.

The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paintnite.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">paint night<\/a> craze is likely perfect for Mother\u2019s Day.

Stroll through a sculpture garden.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another lovely way to spend Mother\u2019s Day outdoors. Do a bit of research to find a local community sculpture garden and take a lovely stroll &#8212; maybe with a couple lattes in hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/CANOE305.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15194\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/CANOE305.png 600w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/CANOE305-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/CANOE305-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"button-cta horizontal\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/cards\/holidays\/mothers-day\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">See Mother&#8217;s Day Cards<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">29. Cooking class.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Get creative making something yummy with mom by taking a cooking class. This can be especially fun if mom wants to learn a few new tricks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">30. Mom\u2019s very own happy hour.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Have a few moms in the family? Why not celebrate with all together under one roof and from the same mini-bar? Make a signature cocktail for the moms in your life \u2014 or a few different creations each named after a mom. And don\u2019t forget to serve the special ladies first!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"724\" height=\"482\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/happy-hour.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15196\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/happy-hour.jpg 724w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/happy-hour-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 724px) 100vw, 724px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"indoor\">What should I do for Mother&#8217;s Day at home? Indoor Mother&#8217;s Day activities!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The previous Mother\u2019s Day activities were mostly socially distanced friendly &#8212; with many of the plans revolving around being outdoors. If you\u2019re making plans indoors this year for whatever reason it doesn\u2019t mean they need to be dull. Here are some uniquely fun ways to spend Mother\u2019s Day indoors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">31. Virtual Museum tour.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that trip to the museum? How about making it virtual! Most museum <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/online-features\/met-360-project\">websites allow you to take a stroll online<\/a>. To make this extra special, get a projector and a white screen (or just a big white sheet) to project the tour on a wall.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">32. Puzzle.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Seems like 2020 was the start of puzzle-frenzy while everyone was in lockdown, but turns out\u2026 Puzzles are actually kind of fun! Make some yummy tea or mimosas and get to puzzling. See if you can finish the whole puzzle in one day. Once you\u2019re finished, consider framing the masterpiece as a reminder of your time together. Plus, many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uncommongoods.com\/product\/heart-bouquet-puzzle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">puzzles are stunning<\/a> so it can make for lovely wall decor.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"724\" height=\"483\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/puzzle.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15197\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/puzzle.jpg 724w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/puzzle-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 724px) 100vw, 724px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">33. A virtual class.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the last couple of years taught us anything it was the power of virtual\u2026 Everything. Any class that you might have considered doing in person, you can likely get access to &#8212; at least for Mother\u2019s Day 2022 &#8212; virtually. People are still offering online versions of yoga or some other fitness classes. If mom is more of a creative type, see if your local studios offer virtual paint classes, cooking classes or even a flower arrangement class. The plus side of staying in and taking an online class &#8212; or any other indoor Mother&#8217;s Day activities &#8212; with mom this year (other than social distancing) is the ability to curate the whole experience. Make mimosas or some other fruity cocktail while arranging flowers or painting a blank canvas.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">34. Stream an online concert.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the same vein, you can opt for an online concert. Whether it\u2019s something that\u2019s streaming live or a concert you find on Youtube. Make it extra special and see if you can find one of mom\u2019s favorite concerts and project it onto a blank wall (or a hanging white sheet).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Alternatively, you can stream another type of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/how-to\/hamilton-is-still-streaming-on-disney-plus-but-there-is-no-free-trial-how-to-watch\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">musical performance<\/a>. Think a virtual musical or a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=9rJoB7y6Ncs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">ballet performance<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/CANOE320.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/CANOE320.png 600w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/CANOE320-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/CANOE320-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"button-cta horizontal\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/cards\/holidays\/mothers-day\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">See Mother&#8217;s Day Cards<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">35. Bake together.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If mom actually enjoys baking, this can be a fun Mother\u2019s Day activity you can do indoors. You can stick to the trusty recipes you both know and love or get experimental. If you think mom would enjoy getting extra adventurous try to find a recipe that\u2019s challenging and maybe even uses tools or techniques the two of you wouldn\u2019t already know. Watch a tutorial video here and there and don\u2019t forget to have fun!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>An added suggestion: set up a camera (or your camera phone) pointed at your baking station and put it on a time lapse. When you\u2019re all done, it\u2019ll be a fun treat to re-watch the whole process!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Important: You do the prep and the clean up! This is mom\u2019s day, don\u2019t let her clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">36. Plan a travel trip for the future.&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps traveling to a far off place (or even the state next to yours) is something that is plausible for your family in the near future. Spend a part of Mother\u2019s Day researching fun destinations you could visit. Do it over brunch or just set aside a couple hours to dig in and dream up an adventure together!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">37. Host high tea.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Is mom a tea fan? Why not host a lovely high tea extravaganza? Have the whole family participate or let mom invite her closest friends for a lovely lady high tea. Make sure you prepare some delicious (and perhaps unique) tea selections and don\u2019t forget to research proper tea <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stashtea.com\/blogs\/education\/how-to-brew-tea\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">brewing techniques<\/a> for each one. Pair the teas with some small sandwiches and pastries &#8212; make them yourself or get them at your local bakery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"713\" height=\"490\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/high_tea.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/high_tea.jpg 713w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/high_tea-300x206.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 713px) 100vw, 713px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">38. Scrapbooking.&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you think mom would have fun getting crafty with old pictures and stickers while reliving old memories, this Mother\u2019s Day activity may be a winner. Prepare a scrapbook and all your scrapbooking materials &#8212; think stickers, markers, glue and glitter! Visit your local print shop to print out some photos from your phone and make sure to get some from mom\u2019s as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Set up shop on a large table and have fun getting crafty. This can be a fun little Mother\u2019s Day activity post-breakfast over coffee.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">39. Watch old home videos.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another indoor Mother\u2019s Day activity to celebrate mom with the whole family. Pop the popcorn and get out the old videos!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">40. Plan a spa day at home.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If going to the spa is not an option &#8212; for whatever reason &#8212; planning an at-home spa day for Mother\u2019s Day can be a winner. Pamper mom with fancy face masks, and foot soaks. Give her a manicure and don\u2019t forget the cucumber eye patches. The key here is in the preparation. Make sure to gather everything you\u2019ll need &#8212; all the spa goodies, perhaps a cozy robe and of course a bottle of bubbly. You don\u2019t need to be an esthetician to give mom an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theorganicesthetician.com\/blog\/2020\/3\/19\/at-home-facial\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">at-home facia<\/a>l.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"724\" height=\"483\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/at-home-spa.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15201\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/at-home-spa.jpg 724w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/at-home-spa-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 724px) 100vw, 724px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">41. Start a mother-daughter\/son book club.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If mom loves to read, this could be a great time to start your monthly mother-daughter\/son book club! You\u2019ll need to choose your book a month in advance so that Mother\u2019s Day can be your first official book-club meeting. Continue the new monthly gathering well after Mother\u2019s Day and see if you can make it a whole year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">42. Cook for mom.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>How many meals has mom made for you? This mother\u2019s day, turn the table and make all of mom\u2019s meals for her. That means more than just breakfast in bed. It also means you\u2019ll need to do some grocery shopping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This will take some planning, so make sure you think ahead. Plan out 3 meals for mother\u2019s day and keep mom\u2019s favorite dishes in mind. Make a list of the things you\u2019ll make and the ingredients you\u2019ll need. Go to the grocery store in the morning or the night before to be ready for breakfast. If mom normally wakes up early to feed the family, be sure you\u2019re up and making the first meal before she does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chances are, mom normally cooks for more than just herself. So be sure to plan to cook for anyone she\u2019d normally be feeding. The idea is to keep mom out of the kitchen so she can enjoy her day while making all of her favorite meals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t forget to do the dishes (don\u2019t make a mess in the kitchen and expect mom to clean it up).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">43. Re-create a wine tasting at home.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out your local winery or knowledgeable wine store clerk and pick up several different types of wine. Get a little background on each (this may require a little homework on your part) and buy some pairings to go along with the booze. Make it a family only gathering or ask mom to invite some friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/YEPPIE221.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15202\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/YEPPIE221.png 600w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/YEPPIE221-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/YEPPIE221-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"button-cta vertical\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/cards\/holidays\/mothers-day\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">See Mother&#8217;s Day Cards<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"special\">How can I make Mothers Day special? Beyond Mother\u2019s Day activities, ways you can make mom\u2019s day extraordinary.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Clean the whole house.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Take on one of mom\u2019s daily chores so that she has more time to enjoy Mother\u2019s Day. You may not have paid too much attention to all the up-keeping mom usually does, so be sure to pay attention; whether it\u2019s vacuuming or sweeping the floor to cleaning the bathroom. Wake up early and surprise mom with a clean home or do it the night before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Watch your siblings.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Have young siblings that need taking care of? Why not give mom a day to herself by babysitting your siblings (without being asked). As a plus, use the time with your young sibling(s) to create something for Mother\u2019s Day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Send mom out on a day at the spa while you take care of the kids at home. While she\u2019ll love spending time with the family on Mother\u2019s Day, giving her some time alone at first will make her day extra special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Write mom a thank you letter.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/cards\/holidays\/mothers-day\">mother\u2019s day card<\/a> is a must. But instead of the short and sweet \u2018Happy Mother\u2019s Day Mom\u2019 why not use your writing skills this year. Write her a well thought-out letter of appreciation. Don\u2019t wing it. Brainstorm, outline, edit and don\u2019t forget to proofread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/BENCHPRESSED275.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15204\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/BENCHPRESSED275.png 600w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/BENCHPRESSED275-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/BENCHPRESSED275-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"button-cta vertical\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/cards\/holidays\/mothers-day\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">See Mother&#8217;s Day Cards<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"itinerary\">Two sample itineraries for a truly unique Mother\u2019s Day mom will love.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ok so you\u2019ve read through this giant list of ideas and your mind is likely buzzing with potential.
