What to Look for in a Mother’s Day Gift

Budget

You don't have to spend a fortune to give the moms in your life a special present. Set a budget before you go shopping to help guide your spending. Whatever price tag your gift has, make sure you include a hand written card for Mom, especially from her kids. There’s nothing she will treasure more. 

Personalization

No matter what gift you end up choosing, most Moms will agree that personalizing it makes it that much more special. The Little Words Project bracelet allows you to add your own message or choose one from their cute pre-made options. Even if you choose a gift that isn't customizable on its own, adding a sweet little note is a nice, special touch.

Lifestyle

While some women will appreciate an aspirational gift, do think about the lifestyle that the Mom you’re shopping for has and what will fit within her life. Any gift that offers her time, comfort, self-care, and love are sure to be appreciated. 

While the Parachute Waffle Robe may be perfect for the mom who loves a little extra comfort when lounging around the house, the Theragun Mini could be a better pick for the athletic mom who would like to soothe her muscles post-workout.
