2 Shares

Moms are our heroes all year long — from helping us with homework to driving us to sports practice to being sounding boards for all of our greatest stressors and goals, there isn’t a single thing moms can’t do. Moms come in all types — plant moms, new moms, expecting moms, dog moms, even “seasoned” moms. But, if you’re still not sure what to get the mom in your life for Mother’s Day, we’ve got you covered. These last-minute Mother’s Day gift ideas are sure to bring all the smiles, whatever type of mom you gift them to!

Plant Moms

Grow Pad
This Mother’s Day gift idea takes gardening to an entirely new level — Grow Pads are environmentally optimized growing systems for herbs and specialty plants through soil-less, hydroponic growing technologies. This mini pad will be the perfect addition for any plant mom looking to step up their gardening game and create her own mini local food system. Place this device in your living room, entryway or kitchen — wherever you decide, you’ll never have to worry about weather conditions harming your plant’s growth.

Sculpd Pottery Kit
In addition to May having Mother’s Day, it’s also mental health awareness month. It’s been shown that creative activities like art can be therapeutic for stress, anxiety and depression. If you know a mom who could use a bit of a pick-me-up, this plant pottery kit from Sculpd is the perfect activity. Everything she needs to create several pinch pots comes with this set: air dry clay, pottery carving tools, paint, paint brushes and so much more. She’ll have complete freedom to finish the projects, however she wants; with real or fake soil, maybe adding succulents for a pop of green. The choices are endless!

New Moms

Mumsies
Talk about a dream pairing — denim overalls and a babywearer! This Mother’s Day gift idea is sure to be your mom’s new go-to outfit. She’ll not only have a versatile, year-round piece to add to her closet, but she’ll have a simple process of keeping her little one close. For grocery store runs, walks around the neighborhood and hanging around the home, add a Mumsie to her closet!

Roomba
One minute the house is clean, the next there’s dust, dirt and pet hair on every inch of the floor. The last thing new moms want is to worry about how clean the house is. Adding a Roomba to her cleaning collection is a thoughtful gift, because it automatically snatches unwanted dirt on carpet, hardwood and tile flooring. And for an added bonus: Roombas double as excellent entertainers for babies… think we’re joking? TikToks of babies riding around (safely) on their Roombas quickly became a clever trend. But for all the brand new moms out there, we’d hold off a few months before letting your child take your Roomba for a spin!

Expecting Moms

The Comfy
Comfort is KEY when an expectant mother is navigating all the changes her body goes through during pregnancy. We’re all about comfy and cozy when thinking about Mother’s Day gift ideas, like bathrobes or fuzzy blankets…so why not have the best of both worlds? Lined with Sherpa and designed to be oversized, The Comfy is a wearable part-shirt-part-robe-part-blanket that can offer an added layer of comfort throughout a mom-to-be’s entire pregnancy journey.

Back and Shoulder Massager
A gift that moms can use both pre- and post-childbirth — what better way to show her you care by giving her access to a spa treatment at home? As new moms adjust to the stress of their changing bodies, they can strap on this BetterNeck massager and find some comfort, relief and a little pampering!

“Seasoned” Moms

Firstleaf Wine Subscription Box
You know your mom loves wine, but do you want to surprise her? This Mother’s Day gift idea was voted America’s #1 Awarded Wine Club, grab her a Firstleaf subscription, where each month she’ll receive six new bottles of wine on her doorstep! Firstleaf provides curated wine picks based on your taste preference — once she takes a special quiz, she’ll be sent a new shipment of wine each month based off of her quiz results.

French Press
When Mom wakes up early, you know a cup of coffee is in her hands. While there are plenty of fancy espresso makers out there that we LOVE, you can’t top the smoothness of coffee from a French Press. Whether your Mom is an empty nester or has a schedule that allows for “her” time in the mornings, treat her to rich, artisan-quality coffee from the comfort of her kitchen!

Stay-At-Home Moms

Silk Loungewear Set
Perfect for a cozy night in after long days at home, silk loungewear sets are guaranteed mood boosters — especially for days when life at home feels extra hectic! There’s a magic to them that makes you feel elegant no matter what! And we know this stunning set from Silk Maison will be the new favorite at-home wear for the stay-at-home mom in your life.

Home Office Makeover
While we’ve been navigating working from home, we all don’t have access to a designated home office workspace. Mother’s Day is the prime opportunity to give our working Moms the gift of organization and space this spring! And if you’re not comfortable trying your hand at a major DIY project, there are local services in just about every area that’ll work with you to create an office space Mom will love!

On-The-Go Moms

TUMI Backpack
Sometimes, a simple, black backpack is all you need to make yourself feel put together! TUMI finds the perfect balance of chic and functional in their line of backpacks. With plenty of space to hold a laptop, gym clothes, water bottle, baby toys, etc., — this bag will be your mom’s loyal companion no matter where her day takes her. While this is a bit of an investment piece, it’s a timeless addition to her bag collection and will be the envy of all her friends!

Dyson Airwrap
When you’re an on-the-go mom, there’s probably not much extra time to spend getting ready every morning. If the mom in your life could use a bit of help in her morning routine, take a look at the Dyson Airwrap! The collection offers several detachable hairstyling tools that can be switched out anytime she wants. Using a digital motor, hair dries in seconds, giving her a salon-fresh hairstyle with ease. Though a bit pricey, it’s a worthy investment and perfect for on-the-go Moms!
