The one official day reserved for our moms is less than a month away. We know everyone’s taking time to stay in the comforts of their own homes because of the situation we’re in right now, but it does not have to be a negative thing!

If you’re thinking of celebrating Mother’s Day in the most relaxed way possible, we have a few suggestions for you! This is for all the moms out there. Spend some quality time with your child (or children), regardless if they’re already grown-up and have kids of their own or not! Making new memories on Mother’s Day this year doesn’t have to take place somewhere far.

Re-do an old picture of your

nostalgic childhood days

This is an ongoing trend for a couple of years now. Try looking through your photo albums and choose a couple of interesting shots. The challenge is to do the same poses and somehow the accurate costumes when you’re redoing an old picture. 

You don’t have to necessarily make it perfectly similar as the old pic! Have fun and swap old stories of the past. Laugh and enjoy your ‘remember-when’ moments. Once you’re done taking the shots, post it online so people can see! You can also write a nostalgic caption with it.

Try writing a cute and sweet poem

You don’t have to be a writer to write a cute poem for Mother’s Day. It doesn’t even have to rhyme! Haikus and other short poem formats are perfect for beginners. And don’t stop there! Grab your arts and crafts supplies and design a hand-made card as well. 

If you want to be a little techy with this, why not do a fun ‘presentation’? Design your very own e-card and show it off to everyone in the living room! You can try making poems for other moms you know as well, if you’re up for it.

Become your own pastry chef!

Spend some time in the kitchen and bake a cake recipe you haven’t tried before. Or you could create a family favourite! This may feel like a chore if no one’s around to help you so make sure everyone grabs their aprons and gets to work.

Remember: It’s the memories that really count. You don’t have to do anything grand to celebrate Mother’s Day indoors. You can even grab the fam’s favorite board game and spend some time with each other, maybe even without phones! After a game, you can tell one fun and loving memory you have of mom. 

Have fun!
