The best Mother’s Day gifts are so exclusive, so unique, that you can’t get them on Amazon or anywhere else. 

These cherished items are things that move mothers to tears. And while it may sound like they come with a hefty price tag they don’t—far from it. 

The gifts we’re talking about here are things that come straight from the heart.

For those looking for ideas on what to create with the kids this Mother’s Day, check out these Mother’s Day gift ideas she’ll love.

Breakfast in Bed

Honestly, the only thing that’s better than breakfast in bed is having it served by everyone you love.

Get the kids together on Mother’s Day morning, and whip up something special. 

You know her favorite things, perhaps pancakes or waffles with real maple syrup and sliced strawberries, or scrambled eggs with avocado and sourdough toast.

Along with coffee, serve the beautifully plated breakfast with a special drink. Sparkling water and orange juice in a fancy glass will do just fine.

Finally, add a small bouquet of flowers to the tray and a handmade Mother’s Day card. 

As she enjoys her meal, have the rest of the family join her and let her know how important she is — how much she means to all of you.

Once she’s finished, maybe you do something fun together as a family. Or if she needs it, just pamper her at home.

Kids Creations

Life goes by so quickly, and your kids are never going to be this age again. 

One of the sweetest ways to “freeze” time is to work together with your kids to create a gift for mom. 

Maybe it’s a book about all the things they love about her—written and illustrated by them—which you bind into a hardcover book.

You can include photos of fun things you did together over the past year. Perfection is not the point. Rather, you want to draw from the heart. Let it inform the sentiment, uninhibited. The goal here is to free yourself and your kids up to be creative and have fun. 

Record the Family 

Compiling a video diary of family members each sharing what they love and value about their mom is an incredibly touching and special gift. 

It’s a gift that she can rewatch whenever she pleases, and it will become even more special to have when the kids grow up and head off to college. 

Stopping the hands of time is beyond our control, but the video diary you create is the next best thing.

Chores Galore

Sunday is a day of rest—unless you’re a mom. For most mothers, Sunday is a day to get the house in order and prep for the upcoming week. If there’s ever a day that she deserves to have “off,” it’s Mother’s Day. 

While she enjoys being pampered, lead the rest of the family in cleaning the house and helping prepare everything you can for the upcoming week. 

Focus on Feeling

While it’s easy to become swayed by marketing and all the things we’re told we “should” get someone, the real importance lies in how the gifts will make her feel.

Feelings are powerful, they’re a big part of what makes memories last. 

If you work with the kids to create something that’s heartfelt and genuine, that makes it meaningful. It’s personal, and leads to a feeling she’ll cherish forever. 

Work with your kids, ask them how they want to show their love for their mom. Who knows? They may have some pretty cool ideas as well.
