Best Mother's Day Gifts from the Kids

AD: This week I’m working alongside Very to share their wonderful Mother’s Day gifts. All opinions are 100% my own.


Are you a mum who would love some gorgeous gifts from the children this year but you're hopeless at giving helpful hints?

Kids of all ages like to make their mum feel special but sometimes it's hard to know what your mama would like!

I’m guilty of looking forward to this day but also not letting anyone know what I'd like to receive! So this month I've teamed up with Very.co.uk who have an incredible array of different gifts for mums. There's so much variety, you'll find something to suit every special mama!

I've been through the beautiful gifts and these are some Mother's Day ideas for your kids to buy you. So if you want to drop a hint to your children or partner, send them this mother's day gift guide and make their shopping easier and your day more fun!

A day out which spoils you all

The perfect Mother's Day gift is time spent together. With this in mind why not try a Virgin Experience Voucher. Virgin have hundreds of different days out and experiences on offer from spa days, family day trips to vineyard tours and much more. With this sweet gift you can choose whatever suits you for a treat as the mum or take part in fun activities for the entire family. When booking; your family can choose a specific experience or purchase a gift card, giving you time to think about what you'd like to do. Get a family member to order yours here.

Stylish footwear for the school run

If you spend a lot of time going to and from school holding little hands, you'll want to look good and be confortable. Thank goodness for flats becoming fashionable. We're long term fans of Gazelle trainers, with their subtle suede, three stripes simple design and plenty of colours. The slim tapered shape is very flattering and they go with just about anything you have in your wardrobe. Older kids will love buying their mum these iconic trainers and they're the best gift as we bet you've been coveting them for a while... Click to buy.

Trench coats for spring weather

Now Spring is on its way we should all be planning for a fun activity like mornings in the park ending with a pub lunch! The perfect gift for this time of year is the trusty trench coat. It's one of the most versatile pieces of clothing you'll own and it can be worn throughout the year.

Mine is getting a little threadbare as it's been in my life so long. So a wonderful way to treat your mum this year is with a new belted mac. I've gone for black as it can be worn in any situation and is easy to combine with smart or casual clothes. See the range here.

Fancy earrings for Mother's Day lunch

If like us, you usually pop out for a meal for Mother's Day tasty treats or at the very least you are not cooking! Dressing up is a great way for you to feel special. Some gorgeous new earrings are a perfect choice as a thoughful present idea. We love these sterling silver, star, stud earrings with diamond effect, cubic zirconia. These are pretty for every day or when you're out and about for an occasion. Buy them as a gift.

A candle to relax at the end of the day

After all that excitement an amazing gift for a mum is a Yankee Candle to light in the evening as she's winding down. These are always a joy to receive and can be given by any age group of child. You could also surprise your mum by giving her something with a personal touch like a neck pillow or a custom photo blanket where you print her favorite or funny photo. When you are gifted one of these you know it will give you a little selfcare moment and make you prioritise some down time.

Yankee Candles are loved around the world for their beautiful scents, they're particularly special as they have fragrances of the seasons which rekindles precious memories. View the range here.

Chocolates for when they're all in bed

What is Mother's Day without some delicious chocolates?! Your youngest kids will appreciate how much you want this present! You’ll also have much fun keeping them away from the box.

This Hotel Chocolat 'Everything Luxe' gift is a real showstopper. Not only does it look fabulous, when you open the lid, the chocolates themselves are almost, just almost, too good to eat!

Apparently this box selection was chosen by Hotel Chocolat customers who were asked to handpick their favourites. They've done brilliantly as there is so much choice and something for everyone, IF you decide to share!

There's some great adaptions from desserts such as Eton Mess, cheesecake, carrot cake, Billionaire's shortbread and more. Let's be honest though, I'm just after the Champagne truffles! Share this with your family to make sure they buy you this Hotel Chocolat gift!

We all love the personal touch on a big occasion and no doubt a sweet Mother's Day card will be on its way to you as well. Created by your younger kids at school, maybe even with some handprint keepsakes! Those are the cutest handmade gifts.

In between doing some Mothers Day crafts, try and take some extra time for you and enjoy a relaxing bath. I'm sure whatever you receive will be the best gifts, along with lots of cuddles and fresh flowers!
