2. Outdoor Picnic Or Afternoon Teas
If the weather is nice, plan a picnic in a local park or your garden. Pack a basket with her favourite snacks, sandwiches, biscuits, bakes, and treats, and bring along a thermos of hot coffee or luxury tea to enjoy together. It’s a perfect way to get outdoors and enjoy the spring weather.
If the weather is a little too gloomy for the picnic idea, or if you’d prefer to stay indoors to celebrate, there’s nothing more sophisticated than gathering round a table and enjoying a heavenly arrangement of delicious cakes, bakes, biscuits, and irresistible teas with an afternoon tea spread.
3. Get Into The Garden
3. Get Into The Garden
Early March is a perfect time to start gearing up the garden for the year. If Mum’s a gardener, get together and help her plan, plot, and pot up some plants! Make sure to take occasional breaks for a snack and cup of tea as you go!
The true reward will come as the year progresses. The garden will grow in, showing off all the work you put in on the day acting as a memento of the occasion.
4. Movie Night
4. Movie Night
Pick her favourite films, pick up snacks and treats, and enjoy watching a movie together. Perfect if the afternoon spring weather still has a chill, or you just fancy catching up over a film as the day winds down.
Some classic snack choices include popcorn, crisps, some tasty chocolate treats, your favourite hot chocolates (don’t forget the toppings!) and of course, make sure to have plenty of cosy blankets for the ultimate film-focused indulgence.

Plan a special day out to explore Mum's interests. Look for those unique and off-the-beaten-path destinations or activities, for example, if she enjoys gardening, visit a botanical garden, garden centre, or attend a flower arranging workshop together. Alternatively, surprise her with a spontaneous adventure, such as a scenic drive to a picturesque village or a day trip to somewhere she's always wanted to visit.
If you’re still unsure, heading to the shops for some retail therapy and a bite to eat at a good restaurant is a never-fail option too!
