Gifts For The Modern Mom
In Singapore, we celebrate Mothers day on 11 May 2008. This Year, if you are thinking about what to get for your beloved mum, here are some tips.
Start the Day with Flowers. Nothing beats getting Flowered delivered to your doorstep early in the morning. Visit FlowerAdvisor for Mothers Day Flowers Collections. You can try Table Flowers or Carnations.
Once you have gotten the basic gift, these are other gift ideas you can try;
* An It Bag
Every woman should have an It Bag…including mommies! The It Bag for mommies differs from It Bags for single women, of course. The mommies’ It Bag is more roomy (all the better to fit her kids’ snacks, knick-knacks, colouring book and crayons atc), more durable (all the better to withstand the frequent use as a head pillow for the kids), and darker (all the better to camouflage pencil scribbles and hand stains). When choosing an It Bag for mommies, all these factors take precedence over class factor. Suitable bags include the YSL Muse, the Chloé Paddington, and the Botkier Trigger.
* Purple gold jewellery
Pearls are just too mumsy and diamonds have been done to death! Purple gold jewellery, on the other hand, spells class and uniqueness like no other jewels can. Bonus points if purple is mommy’s favourite colour!
* Cast Iron Casserole
Get the modern mommy an iron casserole that cooks everything from a fruit cake to a stuffed turkey, and watch her turn into a chef overnight.
* Knocked Up: Confessions of a Modern Mother-to-be by Rebecca Eckler
This satirical book on pregnancy and motherhood is a must-read for women from pre to post stages of pregnancy and motherhood. She will relive the joys and pains of having you in the pages of this book.
* A Mother-and-Child Painting
The modern mother appreciates art – especially if the subject is somewhat close to the heart i.e. depicting motherhood, pesky kids and a crazy house. Gustav Klimt and Lord Frederic Leighton have painted some very nice ones.
* Gift Certificate
Sometimes, we never know what a modern mommy really wants –whether its that micro-mini skirt or an island getaway with Dad. The best choice is a gift certificate which entitles Mommies to a shopping spree at one of her favourite shopping enclaves.
