Are you still looking for an original gift for Mother's Day? Look no further, because I have found the perfect gift. There is plenty of choice, so you can surprise your mother with a gift that suits her completely.
In the Netherlands, Mother's Day is celebrated every second Sunday in May. For 2021, this day falls on Sunday 9 May. Keep in mind that Mother's Day is not celebrated on the same day in all countries.
Mother's Day is actually as old as the Greeks themselves, because this day was already celebrated back then. However, Mother's Day as we know it is not that old yet. This was first celebrated in 1870, only this day was dominated by disarmament and pacifism. It was not until 1907 that this day was really renamed Mother's Day by the American Anne Marie Jarvis. She wanted to honor her mother in a special way during the Civil War. That was not just because her mother had taken care of other mothers during the war.
In 1914, this day was officially declared Mother's Day in America. Only 11 years later, in 1925, did the American tradition spread to the Netherlands. Everyone was immediately enthusiastic and since then there has been a special day for all mothers.
Now you may think that Mother's Day is only for biological mothers who have actually given birth to children. But the word mother goes much further. How about a woman who has had a miscarriage? She is also just a mother. Or a woman who has adopted children. Of course, this also applies to stepmothers or women who, for example, care for foster children.
Perhaps you have a woman in your life who is not your biological mother, but who fulfills this role. Then that's reason enough to put her in the spotlight during Mother's Day.
Traditionally, children give their mother a nice present on Mother's Day. Attention is often paid to this at school, so that the child at least takes home a nice craft or drawing. The older children get, the more attention can be paid to this day. Do you have children yourself? Then these tips for a free Mother's Day gift for children are great fun to pass on.
Although you can still craft something nice for your mother as an adult, most people choose to buy something for their mother. Which gift you buy really depends on a lot of things. To start with, your budget, your mother's interests and of course whether you give the gift alone or perhaps together with your brother/sister.
Please note that it is not the intention to give a gift that is useful. So a basket of cleaning products is a no-go. That also applies to gifts that directly refer mother to the stove and things like that. Of course it is good to give something useful, but make sure that it is something that is only for mother.
Even better is to choose something that mother would like to have, but would never buy for herself. Many mothers neglect themselves for the sake of the children. All the money is spent on the children, without thinking about themselves. That's why Mother's Day is the perfect day to spoil your mother with a gift that is really for herself.
Are you really looking for a very original gift? Then consider a piece of jewelry. Not just any jewelry, but jewelry with a message. Or a piece of jewelry with a certain meaning. At Kayasieraden.nl you will find a lot of jewelry for mothers.
For example, there are very beautiful rings for women with a unique birthstone. You could then, for example, take the birth month of herself or the children as a starting point. You also have the choice of gold and silver, so that you can tailor the choice to your mother's preference. I bought a few rings with birthstones for the month of May and October. These have a special meaning.
Or surprise mother with one of the beautiful bracelets. With this gift you can really go in all directions. Provide the bracelet with charms with the names of all (grand) children on it. Or put an engraving on it so that your mother is always reminded of you the moment she looks at her bracelet. You can also opt for a bracelet with a fingerprint and possibly an initial. Unique and a gift you will never forget.
Whichever piece of jewelry you choose, your mother will be surprised with a unique gift that she can wear to different occasions. Moreover, with every purchase you support the Eduki foundation in Gambia. A foundation that works to ensure that underprivileged children can go to school. A great goal that every mother can support.
