Abraham Lincoln

Every child knows that his/her mother is the angel who loves them the most.

Breakfast in Bed

Start your mom`s day by waking up early yourself, cleaning up your room and making her a special breakfast in bed. Try some easy recipes at home like pancakes, Toast and Eggs, or a healthy bowl of oatmeal if you are not adept in the kitchen.

Flowers

They are the oldest trick in the book for a reason. Nothing shows affection better than a a beautiful bunch of flowers. Get her some of her favourite fresh from a market and surprise her by placing them in a beautiful vase by her bedside or her dressing table.

Picnic

If your mother is outdoorsy, pack some lunch, juices, and go for a picnic to a spot nearby. You could also chose to go out of the city for a short drive, a nature walk and back.

Handmade card

Mothers are the happiest when they get something personalised. What better way to bring a smile to her face by making a beautiful card for her using your crafting skills. Make use of all your creativity and recycle by cutting and pasting old photographs, Newspaper, Colored paper into a collage for your mother. Trust me, she would treasure it more than diamonds and gold.

Dinner

If you don`t trust yourself in the kitchen, go out for a dinner date with your mother. Take her out to her favourite eating joint and let her chose what she wants.

If you have not yet started earning, or don`t have enough saved up, look out for the umpteen special discounts that many restaurants offer during these special days.

The gift of Spa

If you want your mother to be utterly pampered, gift her a spa coupon to a massage parlour nearby. You could hire a cab and have your mother picked up for the day and drop her back after the day of relaxation. If you want to spend your day with her, gift her a set of spa soaps, massage oils, luxury bath salts that she could use at home too.

Goodnight Cake

End her special day with a dessert of her choice that the whole family can enjoy. Bake her a cake if you are confident enough, or just order her favourite flavour from good bakery near you.

Chocolates are also another great option if she loves them. You could also try and make a ice-cream cake for her by simply carving out a brick of her flavour choice.
