Mother's Day Ideas to Make This Quarantine Holiday One to Remember

Mother's Day Ideas to Make This Quarantine Holiday One to Remember

Mother's Day is an annual reminder to cherish the relationship you have with your mom. Given this year's unique circumstances, many of us are celebrating the holiday at home or even, away from the women — moms, grandmas, aunts, you name it — that we love most. For that reason, some Mother's Day traditions like spa days and fancy dinners feel next-to-impossible this May. But remember, Mother's Day isn't canceled; in fact, the sentiment behind the holiday is more meaningful than ever before.

With some creativity and preparation, you can give your mom the Mother's Day she deserves — and, let's face it, needs — during quarantine. This list is full of ideas that don't require you or your mom to leave the house, so you can continue to practice social distancing and stay safe.

Start her day on the right note by showing up at her door with a tray full of pancakes, eggs, or any other brunch favorites. And if you can't be there IRL, order coffee and breakfast from her favorite local spot and have it delivered right when she wakes up.
 

When you drop off her Mother's Day card and gift, take some extra time to dress up her door with a spring wreath. That way, she'll be surprised with a burst of cheer when she opens her door — and she can leave it up for the neighborhood to see all season long.

  

Even if you can't hop on a plane and sightsee, you and your mom can still bask in the world's beauty with virtual tours of museums, gardens, mansions, and national parks. Take the Biltmore Estate in North Carolina, for example: You can see the ins and outs of America's largest home, including their state-of-the-art gardens and landscaping.

Host a virtual Happy Hour

Raise a glass to the woman who raised you — the virtual way. It's your call: Once you sign on Zoom or the video conferencing app of your choice, play games, tune into a virtual concert, or simply chat the night away with a cocktail in hand.

Wine is always a good idea, especially on your mom's special day. Turn her favorite activity — drinking wine, obviously — into a memorable experience by creating a custom wine tasting with different varieties of reds, whites, and rosés. Best paired with cheese and crackers, of course.
