MOTHER\u2019S DAY is celebrated on Sunday, May 12th, to express regard, respect and love towards moms. It is a day which makes people remember the importance and significance of mothers in their life and is observed as a day to give a special emphasis to the motherly figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some ideas how to celebrate a special mother:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n SERVE BREAKFAST IN BED <\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More like brunch in bed. Let her sleep in, then enjoy flapjacks and snuggles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TAKE A FAMILY BIKE RIDE<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get the whole crew up and moving. You can deck out mum\u2019s bike with some pretty flowers, and pop baby in a bike trailer for a day of family fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PLAN A PICNIC<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re sure any mum would love having some fun in the sun with her favourite food and her favourite people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SEE A MOVIE<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When\u2019s the last time she got to watch something that was not a children\u2019s show? Have someone else babysit and take mum to a movie for a few hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MAKE A DELICIOUS DINNER<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If she\u2019s always the person making the meals, give her a night off by making Mother\u2019s Day dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BOOK MANICURES\/PEDICURES<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nothing says, \u201cYou\u2019re the best\u201d like a good foot scrub and a fresh coat of polish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SET UP A SCAVENGER HUNT<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This sweet scavenger hunt that uses heartfelt cards is the perfect way for the children to feel involved in celebrating Mother\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PLAN A DAY HIKE<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spend some time in the great outdoors and let mum get back in touch with nature. You could make it a family outing, or if you know she\u2019s been itching to get back to some more challenging trails, you could hire a sitter for a few hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n VISIT A PARK OR GARDEN<\/span>\u00ad<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A stroll through a nearby park or garden is a gorgeous and thoughtful way to celebrate her on Mother\u2019s Day. Or visit the close-by Addo Elephant National Park and enjoy a picnic at Jack\u2019s Picnic Spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DO GARDENING TOGETHER<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kick-start a sweet Mother\u2019s Day tradition by planting a few blooms in your home garden. Every time she sees them, she\u2019ll be reminded of the special day \u2014 it\u2019s the gift that keeps on giving! Some flowers that are fairly easy to maintain include sunflowers, marigolds and sweetpeas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

GO TO AN EXHIBITION OR GALLERY <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If there\u2019s a new exhibition she wants to check out, the whole family can make a day of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

LET HER EXPLORE A PASSION PROJECT<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe she\u2019s always wanted to try her hand at photography, or maybe she wants to learn how to make special cuisine. Whatever her interests are, there\u2019s probably a class or workshop where she can explore a new passion or rekindle an old one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

HEAD TO YOGA<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If mum can\u2019t get enough \u201comm\u201d, the whole family can join her for a yoga session. Many studios offer family classes that are designed for both parents and children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EAT OUT<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spoil her by taking her for breakfast, lunch or dinner at a nice restaurant or place where she will feel special. Remember to book as there might be many families taking this easy option to spoil a mom!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TAKE HER TO THE BEACH<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are few things as refreshing as strolling on the beach. Take her to the beach and take a picnic blanket or towels with to enjoy the autumn sun. Human skin can make large amounts of vitamin D when exposed to the sun. \u2013 SUPPLIED <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
