Mother’s Day, birthdays, or any other special occasion are great opportunities to show your mother how much you love and appreciate her. However, you don't need a special occasion to surprise your mom and make her feel special. Here are some simple ideas to surprise your mother and make her day.

There’s no better time of year to surprise your Mother. With Mother’s Day around the corner take a look below at 10 ways to surprise your Mother. 

Prepare the best start to the day for your Mother. Brew their favourite coffee or tea, add some fresh flowers to make it personal and start her day off with the best kind of surprise.

Although super simple, this could be incredibly effective in making your Mother feel special. Tell her just how much you love her & what makes you appreciate her to make her smile this Mother’s Day.

Collect some of your favourite photos or memories as part of a scrapbook as something to make her smile. A sentimental surprise, this is a gift that won’t just make her feel special in the moment but every time she goes back to look through it.

Something super simple. Take time out of your day to save her time. As with anything, the more time you save her, the more chance she has to take the time to do the things she loves.

Similarly, to cleaning the house, anything you do to help around the house will contribute to giving her the day off. Whether that means helping with cooking, washing up or ironing. However you go about helping around the house, there’s no doubt your Mother would be grateful to have a relaxed day.

Make time to do something special as a family. Take care of the travel arrangements through to the surprise itself & treat her to something special. A meal out, a day out, a visit to a museum, a comedy night or gig. Whatever your Mother loves, organise an outing to match and create more shared memories between you.

Make a gift from scratch this Mother's Day. Test out your creative skills by making a painting, knitting a scarf, forging a memory book for your Mother or something else. However far your artist or creative abilities can stretch, test them out this Mother's Day & make something with true sentimental value.

While sometimes costly, a surprise spa treatment can be the perfect way to wind down for Mother’s. Give her the opportunity to enjoy the facilities of a spa rather than worrying about life outside of her Mother’s Day celebration. 

Prepare and cook a meal that she loves this Mother’s Day. You don’t always have to have a meal out to impress your Mother. Show how well you know her by combining her favourite dishes to make a surprise meal she'll remember. Include starter, main & dessert with even more opportunity to add her favourite things to the menu at home. With care, attention & effort you could create her favourite meal at home.

Something as simple as telling your Mother what they mean to you can help surprise her ahead of this Mother’s Day. While gifts & actions of affection can often help show us how we feel, actually telling our Mother’s what they mean to us can bring just as much joy to them ahead of this years’ Mother’s Day.
