First Mother’s Day Figurines

Start a Family Tradition or Give Just One

First Mother's Day Gift Ideas 2020 - Sweet mother and child figurine is a sentimental gift that the new mom will treasure forever!

A sentimental Willow Tree figurine is a wonderful way to preserve the special memories of this special holiday!

You can buy a different figurine to represent each of your children (assuming that you have more later), and your children will love seeing the figurine that represents them.

Each sculpture stands around 8″ tall, and is sturdy enough to be moved around by little hands.

Don’t be surprised if you in turn receive one also – there’s a new daddy figurine as well!

They’re a wonderful present that she will always treasure – and, if she enjoys the figurines – there are many others to choose from for other meaningful holidays.

Handprint/Footprint Gifts

It’s hard to believe that one day those tiny hands will be grown up!

Use one of these fabulous handprint kits to help you remember how so very small those hands were.

The easy-to-use kit doesn’t require any mixing or baking – and won’t leave baby’s hands and feet all sticky! Simply knead the air-drying clay, flatten it, and press your baby’s hand or foot into the clay to get a perfect impression.

If possible, try to get the prints when the baby is feeding or sleeping so that there’s less wiggling.

Fun Family Activities for the First Mother’s Day

One of the things you’ll need to discuss with the new mom is how she wants to spend this special holiday.

If you have family that lives nearby, then you’ll probably want to organize a get-together with the rest of the crew.

Some women consider this event a time for pampering and relaxing. If that’s the case, she might enjoy a massage, a trip to the spa, a manicure/pedicure, or a girls-only outing of some sorts.

Other moms would prefer to spend the holiday with their family. To them, it’s not Mother’s Day without the whole family involved!

Here are a few of my favorite suggestions for special family outings:

  • Picnic – My whole family has always enjoyed picnics. You can go to a favorite park or to the beach or lake. It’s a great way to spend time together.You can pick up sub sandwiches to go, or pick up a feast at your favorite deli. And don’t think that picnics are only for lunch or dinner – my kids absolutely loved breakfast picnics! It’s a delightful way to enjoy the great outdoors before it gets too hot outside.
  • Swimming – If it’s warm enough for the pool, beach or lake, swimming is a fun family activity. Be sure to give Mom extra time for reading while lying in the sun!
  • Gardening – Today is a wonderful time to add a few bushes or plants to the garden. Or visit your local botanical gardens – a great place for a picnic!
  • Baseball Game – Go check out your favorite team. Be sure to bring along the peanuts and Cracker Jack!
  • Zoo – An outing that the whole family will enjoy. And since it’s spring, there might even be baby animals to Oooh and Ahhhh over.
  • Hike – Take a scenic walk along a favorite path, or try some place new.
