Fun & Practical Mother's Day Gift Guide - my wish list and favorites!

Need something special for a super woman in your life? Find thoughtful gifts for all things mom’s need in this Mother’s Day Gift Guide.

I have gathered some pretty great gifts that I either love, love, love – or have been on my wish list for a while now! I know you’ll find something for every mom on your list! {Updated for 2022.}

Moms are some of the MOST hardworking people on the planet (not to brag or anything) and we want to make sure each mom is celebrated for how much she does the other 364 days of the year. I know that my mom is a super woman and is willing to help me out whenever I need her.

And if you are the mom in the family, maybe just subtly send this post to someone who is going to be celebrating you in a few weeks! 😋 This post contains affiliate links for your convenience. See my full disclosure policy here.

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

1. For the Mom who needs a plan!

I’ve used my Simplified Planner (click here) every year for 4 years now and can’t imagine planning my days with anything else! I also love all of their accessories, like this gorgeous navy gingham pen and my planner pouch.

2. For the Mom who needs to listen to her own thoughts (or music)

I cannot even begin to tell you how much I love my AirPods. I use them all of the time when I need to listen to something I don’t want my kids to hear, or when I want to listen to a podcast while my kids are watching a show, or I want to listen to my music while they are fighting in the car… I mean, the list goes on and on! Every mom needs a pair of these! My cute case for my AirPod Pros is a perfect companion gift, too!

3. For the Mom who needs a spa day

The home face steamer is a great way to pamper her with an at-home spa treatment. It leaves my face feeling so fresh and clean!

4. For the Mom who needs an extra hand

This Big O keyring (click here) is a favorite thing in my life, for sure! Need your hands free to hold a kiddo or carry your groceries? Boom! Done. (Add a mini pouch to go with it for hands free card and cash, too!)

5. For the Mom who needs hot coffee 2 hours later

I love, love, love my gorgeous Corkcicle mug with hydrangeas. Not only is the color super cute, but I never have to re-heat my coffee! Need a bigger coffee cup? My Brümate Toddy XL is great, too!

6. For the Mom whose skin needs a drink

This pro-collagen marine cream has been the best addition to my skincare routine over the past two years. I LOVE slathering on some each night before bed to keep my skin moisturized to its finest. Grab the pro-collagen anti-aging trio to try it out! (If you find that you love it, the cheapest way to get it, is by doing the “subscribe and save” option at Amazon!)

7. For the Mom who has a story to tell

I gifted my mom a Storyworth subscription for Mother’s Day a few years ago and she LOVED telling her story through e-mail each week. We’ve since printed the books and love how it turned out. (I did it for my dad for Father’s Day, too, and it has been such a treasure!)

8. For the Mom who likes to read (and needs a laugh!)

If someone needs a good, light beach read, The Hideaway is a fabulous book! I also love the author’s other book, Hurricane Season. I read these both last summer. And I KNOW the IMomSoHard girls’ book is as funny as their videos. LOVE them!

9. For the Mom who travels in style

This one is an investment, but worth every penny! I bought this Tumi Carson backpack several years ago before a big trip. The pockets are a dream and it fits my 15″ laptop and keeps it protected. It’s seriously worth every penny! (I have the black with gold accents.)

10. For the Mom who loves to host

If you know me at all then you know I LOVE this candle company. Their scents are all delicious and they last forever. I’m obsessed with the antique ball jar candles, too! Their scent Georgia Peach is to DIE for!! I have one sitting on my desk right now and I don’t even have to burn it the scent is so good!
