Mothers are very special and perhaps the most important person in our lives. We are constantly looking for ways to appreciate and celebrate them. From their birthdays to wedding anniversaries, there is no end to our constant search for ways to appreciate them and show them how much they mean to us. This year’s Mother’s day is another special day to give mothers memorable experiences and if you are not sure of ways to go about it, here are a few ways you can do something that will linger in her memory for a long time.
Give her a Spa experience
Mothers always have their hands full. They get so busy with work and the home front that they hardly make out time to look after themselves. Let your mother have some real pampering today, take her to a Spa to unwind and get some rejuvenation. There are a number of Spa services she will find quite useful such as; a massage to relax aching joints, a body detox, a facial, a pedicure and manicure or even a Moroccan Haman bath. The list is endless.

Give her a beauty make over
Mothers don’t always turn out as glamorous as their daughters and sometimes couldn’t care much about make up. Why not book a makeup artist to give her a full make over and watch the surprise look on her face when she sees herself look decades younger.

Take her shopping
Do not just give her money to buy whatever she needs, take time out to go along with her and give her the best shopping experience she could possibly have. Take her to either her favorite stores or to stores she would never dream of going. If you are going clothes and accessory shopping, you may chose to go along with a stylist (if it is within your means).

Upgrade her kitchen
Almost every mother loves to cook and would therefore need some of the best kitchen equipments to make cooking more delightful. You may chose to gift her a complete kitchen makeover or kitchen cookware to help make her cooking activity easier and manageable.

Take her on a trip/boat cruise
Does your mother like to travel and sight see or have you both been short on mother and child time? Even though it may be too late to go on a vacation as Mother’s day is today, you can plan towards it in commemoration of today. It will be a welcome change and an opportunity to see the world and experience new things. Chose a suitable destination that she has never been to and has been longing to go to, within or outside the country for an unforgettable experience. Or you can plan a boat cruise if you have the means.
Surprise her with an in-house musical performance
Who says your mum can’t have a fantastic Mother’s day while indoors? If she isn’t one to stand the hustle and bustle of the city, bring the show right into her house. If she loves a particular musical artiste, you can surprise her with a musical performance from such artiste or better still, give her a CD or DVD collection of the songs she loves.

Give her fresh flowers
Flowers have long been used to convey one’s innermost feelings. Therefore tell her how much you love and appreciate her with flowers. They have to be fresh flowers and if you can, do so every day for a few days until the actual mother’s day. You will touch her soul.
