Mother's day is just around the corner. The special day honoring mothers and motherhood will be celebrated on May 10 this year. Because of the pandemic, it may seem that the traditional and usual way of celebrating mother's day may be improvised this year.
To help you, here are five ways to celebrate mother's day - even if you are at home or away from home - during this quarantine.
1. Breakfast in bed
Let your loved ones sleep in then surprise them with your breakfast in bed! Cliché as it may sound, but having breakfast in bed is a perfect way to start a mother's day. In this way, they will already feel special once they open their eyes!
To top it all off, make sure that your presentation is well made. Even the smallest detail just like the tray is important! You need to understand that aside from the taste of your prepared breakfast, the visual also matters. Not to mention that because of this, they will think that you have put in a lot of effort solely for their special day of theirs.
2. Transform your home into a spa
Your loved ones deserve their peace and relaxation, especially during these trying times. And what better way to find their peace and relaxation than a spa day?
Since almost all of the establishments are closed, you need some improvisation to do this. Transform your home (or at least your bathroom) into a makeshift spa. Start with giving your loved ones their robes.
Prepare their baths with detoxifying bath salts or their favorite bath bombs. You can also take turns doing your mani and pedi! Then, you can give them a good hand and body massage. Not bad for your DIY spa day at home, right?
3. Finish your day with food
Since you have started their day with a breakfast in bed, you might as well end it with food. Take out your inner Master Chef skills and cook them their favorite meals. While dining, you can also toast with your favorite wine or drink.
4. Virtual date and other online things
If you are staying away from home, you can celebrate mother's day through a virtual date! Call your loved ones online and act as if you are outside, strolling, and spending this day together.
You can also use this time to incorporate your editing skills and make a video presentation for your loved ones. You can even send an online greeting card!
5. Essential delivery arrangements
During this pandemic, a lot of pf stores and services are providing home deliveries. One thing to give this mother's day is arranging essential deliveries for them. It may seem odd as a gift, this may be the most relevant gift that you can give them.
Yes, you can order cakes and flower arrangements, but you can also always opt for the things that your loved ones need like, regular spices, rice grains, cheese, condiments, etc. Try to ask them discreetly about what they need at home then surprise them with your delivery arrangements!
Mothers, as well as being and acting one, are one of the most precious and important things in this world. Give them your best effort. Show your appreciation and love while you still can. After all, they only deserve the best.
