Come early May, there's always the looming expectation for the mom-daughter pair to do something great together for Mother's Day. While the behind-the-scenes planning can take time, figuring out what to do doesn't have to be that hard. Start by thinking about hobbies you both like and build from there. So whether you're a duo that likes an outdoor brunch, a relaxing spa, or going on a spontaneous walk, we've created five special activities — plus what to wear — sure to help you and Mom bond.
If your mom is the type who likes to curl up on a couch in a plush bathrobe, then you may want to take her to the spa. Cozy sweats, a loose-fitting T-shirt, and easy slip-on shoes are the perfect outfit for this kind of oasis.
Do your research and pick a restaurant with a beautiful outdoor scene this Mother's Day, and while you're at it, ask them for a preferred table (it never hurts to inquire). Feel free to dress the part — you're celebrating, after all. Floral, feminine dresses are ideal for this kind of afternoon setting. Keep things comfortable, and opt for sneakers over heels.
Imagine both of you putting on workout tights, slipping on your floral Rokas, and embarking on a wilderness adventure (casual, of course). You'll get your blood pumping, take in the beautiful surroundings, and be at peace with nature.
If your mom is the type who loves to learn and get her hands dirty, she may enjoy taking a class with you. Whether it's needlepoint or shibori napkin dyeing, instructional classes are an opportunity to bond, laugh, and create something cool together. Since you'll most likely want to be cozy in a class setting, keep your wardrobe casual, and don't forget comfortable shoes.
An afternoon nibbling on a fragrant assortment of soft and hard cheeses might be exactly what mom has in mind when it comes to spending time with you. Whether you go somewhere for a tasting or dig into the fromage at home, cheese tasting has sort of a rustic vibe. Jeans and a white button-down are a great base. Then punctuate the simple look with a pair of floral slip-ons.
