Gift Ideas For Mother’s Day

Show Your Appreciation This Mother's Day - Even During The Lockdown

Mother's Day last year was overshadowed somewhat by the looming lockdown, so it seems strange to think we'll still be in lockdown for it this year! However, Mother’s Day is a chance to celebrate everything mum does for us and there are still plenty of ways to make her feel extra-special, even if you cannot see her. 

Below, the team at Stephen Young Salon in West Wimbledon explore the ways to show mum your love this Mother's Day (14th March)....

Give Mum Something To Look Forward To With a Stephen Young Gift Card

Treat Mum this Mother's Day with a gift card to spend at Stephen Young Salon when we re-open. You can purchase the gift card online and choose the amount to spend, all Mum needs to do is decide which service to choose! Purchasing a gift card during this time also helps to support a local business during a challenging time. Simply click the tab to the right of this page to choose your gift card. 

Online Courses For Mother's Day

You might not be able to treat your mum to afternoon tea or a spa day this year, but you can still find ways to show your love and keep her entertained during lockdown. 

There are numerous online courses available to suit all budgets, from floristry courses to photography, language and cookery classes. 

What is your mum interested in? Many mothers appreciate the thought that goes into the gifts they receive and by finding something to help her explore and develop her interests, you'll be really showing how much you care. 

Treat Your Mum to a Mother's Day Lunch

Whilst many of us usually use Mother's Day as an opportunity to get out for a delicious Sunday lunch, or a day off from cooking, why not mix it up a little this year? Many local restaurants are offering delivery or takeaway services of their best dishes, including the traditional Sunday Lunch, why not order one for mum and, if you live close by, deliver it yourself at the door?

Alternatively, why not enjoy a multi generational cook along via video link? You could each make a family recipe and enjoy eating it over video link, just make sure that Mum is at the head of the table!

 

Treat Her to Monthly Flowers

Treat mum to a little something more than just one Mother's Day bouquet this year with a monthly flower subscription! 

A monthly flower subscription (or beauty box, wellness kit, gin subscription and even socks - the list of subscription boxes is endless!) is the gift that keeps on giving throughout the year.

In these challenging times when many of us are feeling isolated and sad, having something to look forward to can be invaluable.

Create a Family Book Club

Book clubs are fabulous way for friends and family to engage with each other, enrich their minds and create lively discussions about all manner of subjects!

Traditionally a Book Club would choose one book and then meet together, usually with a lovely tipple, to discuss what they have read. During lockdown, regular meetings are not possible and with many people still shielding, this could be the case for a while. Instead, why not use video calling to create your book club, if you have siblings they can join in on the same call with multiple screens.
