Seriously, we could not have made this idea happen without her magical touch. Thanks again, Carisa!
A Way to Say, “Thank you, Mom.”
Alright, let’s dive in! You may be asking exactly what to do for Mother’s Day and how it might ever be possible to tell Mom just how much you love and appreciate her. We agree that words may never fully express that sentiment but this nifty service-based gift idea is a fabulous place to start! It not only has the most darling fresh and floral design we’ve ever seen, but the entire concept is based on letting your ACTIONS speak louder than your words, hence the term random acts of kindness. Plus, this idea works for even the busiest of folks by removing any possible guesswork. You’ll be armed with a whole host of ideas Mom is going to go gaga for and it’s a gift anyone can give at any time to say, “Thank you, Mom, for everything.” Best of all, the whole family can get involved thanks to our multiple Mother May I? printable cards that are just too cute for words. Is that a made-for-mama idea or what?!
What’s Included We’ve taken every step to ensure this gift for mom is as done-for-you as possible and totally hassle-free, giving you more time to get yo’ gifting on! Keep reading to learn more about each item in your printable pack and how to use it! Mother May I? Instruction Sheet First item up, a gorgeous printable instruction sheet that’s the perfect way to explain the ‘rules’ to family and friends. Print on good quality paper (we always recommend cardstock!), cut, and place the card in a location everyone is sure to come across, or pass it around! We also recommend having your random acts of kindness list (see below) and your printable Mother May I? cards nearby so family members can instantly get thinking of their special treat for Mom. We guarantee no one’s played Mother May I? like this before!
Mother May I? Ideas List As much as we adore the random acts of kindness concept, we totally get that it can be tricky coming up with fresh and new ideas. That’s why we’ve also included this one-of-a-kind list made with Mom in mind. Say goodbye to those days of wondering what to do for Mother’s Day because this is the real deal. Simply give it a skim and have each participant select an item Mom will love. Spoiler alert!! She’ll love them all.
Mother May I? Cards Last but not least, these clever cards are the go-to spot to record what to do for Mother’s Day for mom. We’ve designed them in such a way that assembly is super simple and we’ll give you an up-close look at how it’s done. Simply print and cut, being careful not to cut through the center line of each card. You’re going to be folding the card back on itself, creating a quick and easy front/back. Take a look!
Apply a bit of adhesive in between the front and back and you’ve got yourself a gorgeous double-sided card that’s really something. After everyone’s chosen one (or more!) idea for Mom, get ready to get writing! Simply fill out the cards with your service idea and sign your names. Then have everyone present their cards to Mom at the same time or consider scattering them across her pillow, sticking them to the bathroom mirror, or even placing them all over the inside of her car. How great of a surprise is that?!
