A woman’s first Mother’s Day can be a very special day as she is welcomed into the ranks of women who are mothers. Celebrate motherhood with a wife, sister, daughter or friend with the best gift ideas that will make her feel remembered and loved on her very first Mother’s Day.
A Baby Keepsake as Mother’s Day Present
A baby keepsake kit is a great personalized Mother’s Day present for first-time moms. A keepsake kit includes a box frame with a special mat that includes a place for the baby’s photo and a mold of the child’s foot, hand or both. Material for the mold is included.
Keepsake kits make great Mother’s Day gifts because they can be personalized for the child. They are hung on the wall, so they save space. When other children are born, additional keepsake kits can be purchased. Keepsake kits are available for purchase at craft stores, like Michael’s. Red Envelope offers a deluxe baby keepsake kit with room for two molds (one hand and one foot) as well as a personalized name plate.
Photo Gifts for New Moms
Photo gifts are great gift ideas for mom. All moms love gifts that include photos of their new little ones. Photo gifts can include photo albums, mugs, mousepads and more. Mousepads are good gifts for working mothers who want to bring their babies with them to work. Travel mugs customized with baby’s photo are also good for moms on the go. A photo mug with baby’s picture can be a great personalized gift.
Photo gifts are easy to purchase with pictures of the baby and mom. When the new mom sends out an email with the baby’s picture, use that photo to make a gift for her (check to make sure the photo is a high enough resolution first). Family members and husbands can also take pictures of the mom and new baby and use those to make photo gifts. Gifts can be purchased at many online retailers, such as Snapfish, and Wal-Mart and Walgreen’s also sell photo gifts online and in stores.
More than Mother’s Day Flowers
Mother’s Day flowers are traditional Mother’s Day gifts for mom. Most women love to receive flower bouquets on holidays. Many online retailers like Flowers.com, offer discount coupons and codes around Mother’s Day. But Mother’s Day flowers do not have to be limited to the traditional bouquets.
Other choices for Mother’s Day flowers can include hanging baskets, non-toxic houseplants, perennials or annuals. Husbands can make it a tradition to celebrate motherhood and welcome spring with the purchase of flowering hanging baskets each year. As children grow, dad can help kids become involved with picking the hanging basket for mom each year. Flowering trees also make nice Mother’s Day gifts from husbands to new moms. As the child grows, so will the tree. Check with local nurseries and garden supply stores for the best selection of annuals, perennials, flowering trees and hanging baskets for Mother’s Day gift ideas.
When buying a Mother’s Day present for first-time moms, there are many gift ideas for mom. Unique gifts for women can include a personalized keepsake kit and photo gifts. Mother’s Day flowers can be traditional flower bouquets or can include other plant and flower gifts. Husbands can make flowering plants part of a Mother’s Day tradition to welcome spring and celebrate their wives’ motherhood.
