Lesbemums: Five Simple Ways to Spoil your Mum!

Five Simple Ways to Spoil your Mum!

Aren’t mums wonderful? Every mum is unique and utterly special – they hold the family together so it’s not uncommon to want to spoil them rotten! You might want to give your mum their own tropical island, or buy gold bars for them in abundance but when you’re on a bit of a budget, you might have to have a rethink…

Spoiling your mum can mean so much more than a scented candle and an autobiography of their favourite reality celebrity. Looking for a little inspiration? Read on for 5 ways you can spoil your mum.

Get them moving

Is your mum into health and fitness? Or are they hoping to introduce a little more movement and healthy eating into their lives? Well, why not give them a helping hand? You could sign them up to a couple of fun exercise classes – you could always join her for a bit or moral support and quality time – or even or pay for a few personal trainer sessions to get them started. New gym gear or new trainers or even a lovely new water bottle that will help keep them hydrated when they’re sweating it out.

A pamper session

Who doesn’t love a long, indulgent session at a spa retreat? Well, your mum certainly will. And again, it’s the perfect opportunity to spend some quality time together. You could book a morning or afternoon session, indulge in a couple of treatments and then top it all off with a delicious afternoon tea. If your budget is a little more modest, don’t worry – check out your local beauty parlour and see what treatments they have available. A 30 minute shoulder massage will certainly be welcome!

Tick something off their list

Mums never stop and always have a to-list longer their arm! So, as a meaningful treat, why not offer to take care of something for her so she doesn’t have to? Picking up the dry cleaning, running errands in town for her, the cleaning or house maintenance. Whatever she needs help with, give her a hand! This treat is ideal if your budget is on the modest side.

Make her a new photo album

We all love flicking through the pages of our family albums. Enjoying the nostalgia and the happy memories! So, why not create a new one? So many family photographs are lost within the depths of social media these days or locked away on phones never to be seen again. So, get some recent photographs printed and put together an album. The latest family holiday, images of their grandchildren growing – use your imagination and you’ll have plenty of ideas.

Try a new restaurant

Perhaps there’s a new café your mum has been hoping to try, or a high end restaurant that’s just opened on the high street. Well, if you want to pull out all the stops, treat her to high tea or even a lovely family meal. If you have other siblings then they can help foot the bill!
