Mother’s Day: plans to spend the day with your children
Do not wait and choose the perfect plan for yourself to spend this special day with those you love the most.
Every first Sunday in May, Mother’s Day is celebrated in Spain and in some European countries plus . It is a very special day in which we have the opportunity to thank our mothers for everything they do for us and show it by spending the day with them.
Spending time with her family is important for a mom. When the children are older this can be more complicated since they are more independent or live far away , so it is almost necessary to make an effort to find the time to be together and Mother’s Day is a perfect day for this.
If you want to spend an unforgettable Mother’s Day so that you and your family can enjoy together, it is best to carry out a plan in which you carry out one or more activities to the liking of all the members. Here are some original ideas to do on this day.
Plans to spend the day with your children.
A good option if you like the outdoors is to spend the day in the countryside. You can start playing a team sport such as soccer or basketball if you are a large family or if you are few, you can try shovels or frisbee. If you don’t like sports too much, you can choose to play a game. The cards and board games are the traditional but there are plenty of options for games in which no additional accessory as “El Pueblo Sleep” or “Phone” is not needed.
A good plan to carry out in the field and help preserve the environment is to plant seeds of plants or trees . A nice family tradition would be to go back to the place where they have been planted each year on Mother’s Day and see how they have grown. For lunch, you could prepare a delicious picnic with light and easy-to-cook food, and don’t forget to collect everything when you’re done!

OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES IS ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA
An original idea to spend this day together, and if you are interested in renewing family photos, is to organize a photo session. You can do it with a professional photographer or if someone in the family has a good hand with photography you can do it on your own.
A good plan would be to choose thematic costumes and for each member of the family to adopt a role (for example, of a theme such as the “Indians” and for the whole family to wear this costume in common or from a movie and for each one to play a character different). In the photos you can make interpretations and scenes that represent the costume that is worn, making funny poses and helping you with accessories if you want. If your family is something more classic, you can simply get together and wear the same color in your wardrobe (white is the most traditional) and take pictures of each other in groups: first the whole family, then only the parents, then the siblings …
A DINNER, BOARD GAMES AND A MOVIE IS A CLASSIC
Another plan for good weather and if you have a beach, river or lake nearby is a boat trip or any maritime transport in which the whole family can participate. If you are an all-terrain mom, you may be interested in taking your children to a paintball or laser tag , that is, taking care that competitiveness does not play a trick on you. If you want something more relaxed and you have bikes, you can ride with them or even rent a tandem and pedal together.
With any of these plans, you are sure to have a happy and unforgettable Mother’s Day, worthy of a great mom, in which you and your family will feel much more united than ever.
