Celebrating Mother’s Day at Home

I honestly don’t think we’ve ever celebrated Mother’s Day 100% at home. My husband is good about asking me what I want to do for the day, and I’ve never said “stay at home.” So, this will be a new experience for us! Here are some ideas for celebrating Mother’s Day at home during coronavirus that will help make Mom’s day extra special!

Breakfast in Bed: Begin the day by serving Mom her favorite breakfast in bed. Cook something at home or take the kids to pick up take-out, giving mom some time to herself. (Try this easy breakfast casserole that can be made ahead of time and heated up on Sunday morning!)

Spa Day: A solo bath (don’t forget the bath bombs!), mani/pedi (here’s the polish I’ve been featuring on my Instagram for the past week!), or a relaxing massage are perfect ways for a mom to be spoiled right at home.

Movie Time: Pop some popcorn and have everyone gather on the couch for Mom’s movie pick.

Flowers: Brighten Mom’s day with a flower delivery. Or, make it a whole activity by planting some spring bulbs together!

Pictures: Moms always want more photos with their kids! You could hire a professional photographer to do a front porch session for Mother’s Day. Or, set up your cell phone with this simple Amazon tripod + cell phone mount and snap some pics of the whole family for years to come. (Find my tips for putting together family photo outfits here!)

Quarantini: Let’s just say I’ve done more drinking in the past several weeks than I have the entire rest of my life. Grab the supplies to make Mom’s favorite cocktail at home! (This cocktail set will make anyone feel like a pro! We use ours all the time!)

Me Time: There are plenty of moms who want time to themselves on a *normal* Mother’s Day. After having been quarantined for several weeks, it’s safe to assume some moms are ready to *socially distance* themselves from their families at this point. Offer to take the kids for a walk or a drive so mom can have some peace and quiet.

The Most Important Tip for a Successful Mother’s Day

What’s the number one thing you can do for a successful Mother’s Day? MAKE EXPECTATIONS CLEAR.

If you’re the mom, that means being upfront with your partner about what you want on Mother’s Day. Whether’s it’s family time or time to yourself, spending the day trying new recipes in the kitchen or eating take-out, a lavish gift or no gift at all–make it clear what you want, rather than waiting until after the fact to be disappointed.
