Whistler made his mother famous; what are you going to do for yours on Mother's Day 2010? From Wikimedia Commons.
May 9 will be Mother’s Day 2010, the day appointed to celebrate the women that gave birth to us and to our children. The day is right around the corner, so you better start getting some Mother’s Day gift ideas together.
Mother’s Day 2010, as always, right before summer
Mother’s Day 2010 falls just before the summer months, so that’s something you can bear in mind. For instance, you could get her sandals or get around to fixing her sprinklers so her lawn doesn’t die. There are some great Mother’s Day gift ideas on Gifts.com to get you started, like a wine-of-the-month club, personalized M&Ms and so forth. Here are a few ideas that probably won’t make you look for a money lender to come up with a great Mother’s Day 2010 gift:
- Show up at her house and do lots of yard/handy work and let her relax.
- Ger her a gift certificate to a spa or for a massage. She works hard, darn it, and she could use a break. You can even find coupons and get a good deal; try Retailmenot.com or Couponcabin.com
- Jewelry is always nice, and there are some upcoming sales – for instance, the Ben Bridge Mother and Child collection, if you got the bucks.
You could also try making jewelry, for the handmade touch. In fact, if you want to get the kids in on making jewelry, that would probably go a long way.
- Cooking – try making either mom or your partner something special, or treat her to dinner out. Plenty of restaurants are going to run specials, and you may be able to get a nice discount.
- Gift baskets – there will be gift baskets galore all over the place.
- Crafts – scrapbooks, photo albums, are always a great gift to give someone.
Now get on it!
It’s the day set aside to celebrate the woman that gave birth to you and/or the woman who gave birth to your children. They deserve a day, at least, so you better start shopping.

Great blog post, lots of good ideas. Found another nice thing for Mother's Day at http://wfp.org/mothers, where you can send an e-card that makes a difference for someone else's mother too.
I agree all it takes is imagination and creativity… a little gift is welcome but we should remember that they are our mother's all yoer round!
They always deserve our attentions!
We don't need to spend lots of money to show our mother our love. Make something special at mother's day is ok but the most important thing to do is to show our love all year 'round! They are the most important person of our life!!
A gift is a memento, which helps us recalling our sweet memories. Who does not like to receive a gift? The same is also correct for mother. Possibility of creating a stunning gift is immense. Obviously, your selection should be guided by the limit of budget. You can gift her anything from a $5 cookbook to $500 luxury watch. All it matters is her personality and preference and obviously your budget limit. But the best gift, as suggested by Franrose, is to spend some time with her on that day. A family gathering, packed up with joyous events like watching a DVD, will be more impressive gift than any tangible gifts.
i totally agree with you 100% i mean all it takes is imagination and creativity.I am only 10 years old and i look at these websites anyway thanks for the advise Franrose.=) have a great day!
I agree I'm 10 too And I love it!
You don't have to give up an arm and two legs to make this Mother's Day the highlight event of your mother's year; all you really need is to be creative. Come up with activities everyone, young and old, can partake in. If you have a big family, you can put together a small barbecue and have everyone contribute. That way, it doesn't fall too heavily on just one person's pocket. You can write a funny Mother's Day poem of all the silly things you've done in your childhood and have everyone else in the family do the same. This will definitely bring up good memories and tearful laughter. Or better yet, pull out the guitar and play your mother a special song just for her. I'm sure that will put the biggest smile on her face and a warm feeling in her heart. There are really a ton of things you can do to make her day rock like no other. Like I said, a little creativity is all it takes.
