Best 12 First Mother’s Day Gifts Ideas
- Matching mother-baby t-shirts: the new-age Insta-friendly mom might find it amazing if you gift her a mommy-baby t-shirt. It will be an opportunity for her to get cute pictures with her baby in cool matching t-shirts and post it on her social media with #itsmothersdaydude.
- Funny/sarcastic mothers quotes t-shirt for the mom: if the mother is a funny bone or if sarcasm is her second language, then this is the best time to make her laugh this Mother’s Day with a mother-baby quirky quote t-shirt. And trust us, with a sense of humor and a funny t-shirt, she will become quite popular among the new mom’s brigade.
- Thumb or fingerprint pendant: this is an adorable gift idea. You can order a pendant with the thumb or fingerprint of the baby for the mother. And to safely get the print of the baby’s fingers, please contact the retailer.
- Name pendant: another easier way for a pendant idea is to get the name of the baby on it. You can pair the pendants with a neck chain or a bracelet chain.
- Full body massager: a new mom’s most probable best friend is a massager. With recovering body and endless baby care, she will definitely appreciate this thoughtful gift.
- Chocolate basket: chocolates not only are heavenly tasting, but they are also somewhat healthy and stress relieving (mostly dark chocolates). So if she is a sweet lover and if she is a chocolate lover, gift her a basket full of different types of chocolates.
- Plan a picnic or get together with family and friends: if the baby is several months old you can plan a small getaway with them. The new mother and the father must have been really busy for the past year with the pregnancy and the arrival of the baby. So they will really enjoy a cozy family or friends gathering.
- Baby-sit for the mommy: obviously it is mother’s day. And mothers need breaks the most as they work throughout the year without any leave. So if you are familiar with the baby and if you know how to take care of babies then give her a leave and send her to enjoy a spa or anything she likes for the day (if she is ok with it).
- Personalized family tree photo frame: now that her family tree has grown this year with a new arrival, you can gift her amazing personalized photo frames. These frames can be personalized with her favorite quote and a family tree with pictures of each of the family members hanging from the branches of the tree (of course, it is a family tree after all duh). This will remind her that she is now officially the member of the Mother’s Day beneficiaries.
- Personalized night lamps: with the arrival of a baby, also arrive sleepless nights. So to lighten up her sleepless nights, you can gift a personalized lamp. The lamp can have the names of the family members or can even have pictures of them.
- Mother’s day gift basket idea: a mother’s gift basket will be a basket filled with goodies she likes. It could be her favorite chocolates, flowers, an easy dress, a bottle of wine, etc. The ideas for the content of the basket are endless. Just use the information you know about her and you will know what you have to add. There are also ready-made mother baskets available online.
- Self-care gift basket idea: another idea for the basket is adding self-care products to it like bath soaps, bath salts, manicure-pedicure kit, face masks, etc. If you know her favorite brands then great, otherwise try to add natural and herbal products. And it would be great if you can ask someone about her preferences or if she has any allergies etc. There are pre-made self-care baskets available online.
