Here’s a little secret: Moms don’t need a lot on Mother’s Day. They simply love being acknowledged — connecting with family, sharing good conversation (from babbles to FaceTime), getting tagged in a proud post, and, of course, receiving plenty of hugs and kisses.
But what they deserve is to be celebrated in a special way! Whether you're a planner or a last-minute shopper, Price Chopper has thoughtful gift ideas sure to delight any mom — and fit any budget.
Homemade Means Heartfelt
One of the most thoughtful ways to honor Mom is to create something by hand. This is perfect for both kids and adults.
Art from the Heart
Have you little ones show their artsy side and create a family drawing or painting together. Each family can express their sentiment their own way. You can create small dishes or jewelry pinch pots out of inexpensive, non-toxic clay available at any craft store.
Ready, Set, Photoshoot
Host a fun family photoshoot and surprise Mom with the candid shots of her favorite people and pets. Choose from a traditional portrait or turn the family photo idea on its head. You could even wear costumes and make a theme for your photoshoot.
Flower Power
Flowers are always a timeless favorite! A bouquet of flowers is a beautiful tribute and fresh reminder of how special she is. Price Chopper has a wide range of arrangements just perfect for your special Mom. Put us to work for you!
If you’re looking to change it up from the traditional bouquet, consider smaller bouquets in small vases she can place in various spaces – like nightstand, desk, bathroom vanity or a sunny window shelf.
Mother’s Day is the perfect time to get outside and get those green thumbs out. Getting her garden and yard spruced up is a great little labor of love. You can plant her favorites and add decorative yard items like stepping-stones, statuary or wind chimes are other great ways to spring into Mother’s Day.
Tasty Treats & Mom-worthy Meals
Food is a great way to celebrate Mom. Take some of her regular to-dos and turn them into ta-das. Big or small, there’s something she’s sure to savor. Chew on these easy, fun and affordable ideas.
Breakfast in Bed
Spoil her with a tasty breakfast in bed. Greet her with a favorite beverage – coffee, tea, milk, juice, or perhaps a creamy smoothie? Create a silly or meaningful restaurant name and put together a beautiful breakfast tray with a cute flower bouquet, cards made-by-hand and from the store.
Host a Sunday Sundae Bar
Scoop up the fun and invite all the Moms in your life to a spread with their favorite ice cream flavors. Make it complete with cones and tons of toppings like nuts, crushed cookies, cookie dough bites, fruit (cherry on top, please), and yummy drizzles like chocolate, caramel and strawberry.
Chores & Snores
Give Mom the royal treatment with a well-deserved morning sleep-in. Waking up to a clean house and a lighter load will have Mom feeling rested, relaxed and ready for her special day.
Self-Care, Please
For the one who cares for everyone, a gift of self-care goes a long way. Pampering doesn’t have to be pricey. Put together a thoughtful basket or gift bag of her favorite snacks, soap, shampoo and conditioner, or body lotion. Turn your bathroom into a quiet oasis filled with tranquil spa music and a soothing hot bubble bath and give her zero interruptions for an afternoon.
The Gift of Awareness
Remember, Mother’s Day can be a difficult day for some. One of the most thoughtful things you can do for someone you care about is pay attention. A simple card, some sweet flowers, a long, deep hug and smile, a hike or walk, a movie or some other distraction can help the ones you love know just how much they mean today and all days.
