Mother's Day is around the corner. Have you bought your mom a gift? Not yet? No money? No problem! We have solutions for all kinds of issues. Of course, if you can afford to shell out big bucks, do make her feel special by buying her something she loves. Though, there is a special day to celebrate mothers and motherhood in general, don't you think you should be especially thankful for having your mother help you out in every phase of your life? If you do, here are a few things you should do for her not just on Mother's Day but every opportunity you get. The best thing about these gifts is that they don't cost a buck.

Write Her A Letter

A beautiful handwritten letter that tells her how special she is, why you love her, and what qualities in her that you particularly want to emulate, will make her exceedingly proud and happy. Make it extra special by delivering the letter first thing in the morning. Maybe make her favorite breakfast even before she wakes up, and bring it to her bed along with the letter and some flowers? Your mother has been cooking you breakfast all these years; it will certainly be a great surprise for her, and she will love it.

Do Her Household Chores

Take up her mommy duties for a day at least! Do her chores — whether it is doing the dishes, washing the clothes, cleaning the house. However, moms can be exceptionally particular as they need things to be perfect. So, make sure you don't leave dishes lying around, or leave the clothes without folding them. It will be double the work for your mom the next day then! Also, offer to cook for her. In case, you can't cook at all, and we are assuming you don't have money to take her out, there are two things you can do! Order pizza or her favorite dish from her favorite restaurant, or involve your father, and ask him to take all of you out to eat!

Put On Her Favorite Movie Or Show On TV

Since Mother's Day is your mom's special day, she may have loads of free time. Why not put on her favorite Netflix show or movie on TV? You can make it very special for her by keeping everything ready. By everything we mean, keep a bowl of popcorn ready on the coffee table, and assure her that all her chores have been taken care of. Ask her to enjoy her free time!

Give Her A Gift

No, this gift won't cost you anything. You will be making this gift from things that you collect from around the house. A stone paperweight, maybe, or a collection of family photos decorated with some glittery colors. Make a lovely handmade card along with it. Decorate it similarly; there are tons of ideas on Youtube which you can easily make with some colored papers and a scissor - that's all you will need. And, of course, a heart full of love!

Have A Picnic In The Garden Or Backyard

End the fabulous day with a picnic in the backyard or the garden. If the weather permits, put a comfy blanket on the grass. Make some tea and put them outside along with some cakes and finger food. You can, of course, borrow them from your mother's pantry, and, trust us, your mother won't mind. In fact, she will love it. Take this time to talk to her, ask her about her close friends and relatives, what book she is reading, her work. She will love to talk. Often, we get so involved in our own routine that we stop asking our closest people about their lives. You may be constantly on the know about what's happening with your best friend but not your mother. So, time to rectify it!

Just remember that you can do this any time of the year, and your mother will be equally, happy, thankful, and proud of you. She will know what a great kid she has raised. If you are not in the same city, you might have to spend some money though. Order a gift online and book a table at her favorite restaurant. Or just send her a gift card for a full body spa treatment! You will make her day! Whatever sweet surprise you have planned, just make sure to show how much you love and appreciate her.
