Mother’s Day is Sunday, May 13th this year, and it is never to early to start brainstorming the perfect gift. You may not know exactly what to give a new mother, but you’re going to want to avoid the generic or impersonal gifts. Consider these gifts to give the woman who gifted life! Below are 10 adorable Mother’s Day gift ideas for new moms!
An oldie but goodie. New mothers often times do not have a lot of opportunity to take care of themselves. Let her sleep in and bring her the most important meal of the day.
With this book, new mothers are able to write letters to their children for them to read in the future. It’s a great way to capture in-the-moment thoughts, impart advice, or express joy and excitement.
Similar to the sentiment in number 1, it is exhausting to take care of children! While all mothers love their little bundle of joy, sometimes it is important to have some “me” time to recharge. Help her relax with a gift card to a spa, or a nice afternoon to herself.
Who doesn’t love a nice relaxing bath? Give her a gift that she can use anytime she needs to unwind. Using a Bath Tub Caddy, she is able to safely bring her iPad, phone, book, or glass of wine without fear of it getting ruined.
Although it seems simple, a heartfelt card or letter is a great way to show her how much she is appreciated and loved. Don’t just pick out a random one that already has writing on it and call it a day. Pick a card that has few words and write your own personalized sentiments.
Another simple yet sincere gift is a framed memento. Trace your baby’s hand or use ink to make an imprint that will last a lifetime.
If you feel like getting crafty, a compilation of memories between binding is the perfect gift. Add images of your life together and the addition of your little one into the family. Leave some blank pages at the end to keep adding to.
What woman doesn’t love jewelry- especially customized jewelry? There are lots of options out there for mothers. In fact, many necklaces and bracelets have charms that can be added as your family grows. Or, you can opt for one that has your child’s birthstone, name, or date of birth.
Teavanna has a wide variety of loose leaf Tea options in lots of diverse flavors. What better way for her start her morning or end her day than by brewing a cup of invigorating/energizing/relaxing tea?
Another thoughtful and creative gift to give a new mother is a time capsule to preserve the memories of parenthood. This is a great gift for both parents and children to look back on in years to come.
