How do you usually celebrate Mother’s Day with your family? Buy a gift from a department store, go out for a meal and wander around a shopping centre? If this is the case, you might need to be a bit more creative this year. Here are a few ideas for having a special Mother’s Day with your family.
1. Teach your mum how to use social media to stay connected
This is a thoughtful (and free!) gift for all mums who are not familiar with using social media. Start by helping your mum set up a Facebook account and teach her how to follow posts (
like those from we60.com). Then move on to talk about making video calls, etc. However, make sure your mum is aware of Internet safety and privacy.
2. Make a personalized gift
Good gifts need not be expensive. Think about what your mum loves most and make her a personalized gift. It can be a digitized photo frame showing family photos, or a gift basket with all the food she loves. Just try to be creative!
3. Have a leisurely stroll together
These days, you may feel safety to stay indoors and avoid crowds. However, if the weather is nice, it would definitely do you some good to have a leisurely stroll with your mum in a park (
