She’s not just anyone; she’s mom. Mother’s Day is the perfect occasion to go the extra mile to show how much you care. It’s also a wonderful time to celebrate all the special women and mother figures in our lives including grandmothers, great-grandmothers, stepmothers, moms-to-be, aunties and sisters.
But what to get mom? Here are some top picks for the best mama in the world:
Fragrance remains a timeless favourite for good reason. A signature scent, or even a beautifully crafted candle, is something she can enjoy long after the day has passed as reminder of how much she’s loved. As the weather cools, winter warmers also make thoughtful gifts. Soft scarves, cosy knits and accessories that wrap her in comfort are a simple way to return the care she’s always given. Sometimes, the best gift isn’t something you can wrap at all. A shared moment over tea, a long lunch, or time spent together can mean more than anything else.
Movie lovers can also spoil mom with a cinema date night. The Devil Wears Prada returns to Ster-Kinekor at Mall of the North from Thu 30 April, bringing fashion, laughs and iconic moments back to the big screen with the perfect Mother’s Day twist.
An unforgettable afternoon
On Sat 9 May, you can also enjoy “A Celebration of Dance”, a ballet performance that brings elegance, artistry and emotion to the stage. Featuring highlights inspired by productions such as Mary Poppins and Princess and the Frog, along with contemporary dance, acrobatics and special guest performances by the Mzansi Ballet Company, it promises something for the whole family to enjoy. It’s the perfect way to mark the occasion – an experience to share and something to sit back and enjoy together.

Celebrate her, your way
Mother’s Day doesn’t have to look a certain way. It can be big or simple, planned or spontaneous. What matters most is the thought behind it and the effort to show appreciation and to say thank you.
