[dropcap1]M[/dropcap1]other’s Day is almost here. Instead of buying your mom the usual type of gift – like her favourite perfume or body wash – come up with something more memorable. What she’ll remember in years to come is the quality time you spent together, so make the day count. Here are some ideas for ultimate mom-daughter bonding.
Have A Girls Trip!
It’s not always easy to get real alone time with your mom because you’re both always so busy with your lives. So now’s the time to make it happen. Go away together for a mini holiday. Make sure you choose an eco-friendly destination where you can do fun things together. A great example is Truffle Lodge in Tasmania that’s got luxurious camping sites on the river. There are lots of fun activities to do during your stay, such as spending time in the guest lounge, going rafting or kayaking, or relaxing in a hammock.
Get Some Pampering
If you want to give your mom some TLC, don’t buy her beauty products – spoil her with a trip to a green spa instead! Here she’ll get real relaxation. Book her an organic scrub or seaweed “cocoon” (wrap). Check out this article on some of the best organic spas in Australia – and don’t forget to spoil yourself, too!
Volunteer Together
Nothing makes you feel better than doing something to help someone in need. So why not check out a charity with your mum and make a plan to volunteer at it this Mother’s Day? While you’re helping those in need, you’ll be sharing a special day together.
Do Something New
It’s healthy and fun to step out of your mom-daughter comfort zone sometimes. If you and your mom always bond in a specific way, such as by going for a meal or watching a movie, shake things up in an attempt to get to know each other better. Instead of going to your favourite restaurant, go dancing or for drinks! When you try new things together, you’ll strengthen your bond and build a beautiful friendship.
