We Know What Your Mom Actually Wants On Mother's Day

Massages, manicures, and mimosas — oh my! You have a type-A mom who is always on the go, so treat her to a day full of [relaxation and pampering](http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/spa-nordstrom-shop)! Find a fabulous spa nearby or bring the spa to mom by supplying face masks and lighting scented candles.

Have a spa day!

Your mom is a DIY-kinda gal and would definitely appreciate a crafty gift that you made yourself! Try an [easy collage](http://www.littlestuff.me/magazine-grizzly/#more-1193) incorporating her favorite animal, or if you got your mama’s creative genes, [give an old piece of furniture a facelift!](http://lollyjane.com/gray-hutch-floral-paper-makeover/) Better yet, why not create something together?

Make her something from the heart!

It’s an oldie but goodie — especially if your mom is a foodie! She will go bananas for [these apple pancakes](http://www.cookingwithcocktailrings.com/breakfast-and-brunch/2015/9/25/apple-pancakes?rq=breakfast), or you can stick with the classics and whip up some bacon and eggs. Either way, she is starting the day off with her two favorite things: tasty food and you!

Treat her to breakfast in bed!

Whether she is tending to the garden or going on a bike ride, your mom loves to be outdoors. Let’s face it: She’s basically Mother Nature. So spend some time at her favorite place in the world: outside! Collect seashells at the beach, go on a hike, or even set up a picnic in the backyard.

Spend the day outdoors!

Your mom has always been the hostess with the mostess, so why don’t you take over that role and invite friends and family over for a night of apps, laughs, and good ol’ fashioned board games? The best part? Since you are hosting, your mama doesn’t have to worry about cleaning up. And she will love that.

Host a game night!

Your mom is a total movie buff! While most moms can’t name a single actor besides “the guy with the nice hair,” your mom lives for all things Hollywood. So grab a blanket, pop some corn, and join her in her favorite pastime! But be prepared to watch a lot of movies starring Tom Hanks.

Have a movie marathon!
