Mamas & Minis Collective: 6 Mother's Day Activities! (+ GIVEAWAY)
This Mother's Day will be my very first one without my babies!!! It's been an annual tradition to go to brunch with my own mama and my babies (the dudes, too), and then spend the day outside in some way or another. But this year, I'll be at the end of my Iceland/Paris vacation. I'm super excited about the trip, of course, but will be looking to make up this special day the next weekend.
Here are a few ideas of things you can do on Mother's Day with your kiddos:
1. Go on a walk. This is the perfect time of year to adventure around your neighborhood or favorite park/walking trail to look for pretty flowers (or sticks, if you are my kids). I love finding pretty floral trees in our neighborhood right now, and enjoying this weather.
2. Host a family-friendly Mother's Day brunch (and if your lucky, your man friends will do most of the heavy lifting, or you could even cater!). I love getting together with my best friends and their littles to spend time all together. Kids can play, moms and catch up, dads can hang. (or go out to brunch - and if you are in Kansas City, this is our favorite place & way to get there!)
3. Get away with some of your other mama-friends for a girls only lunch or happy hour. Those moments are all to rare, and as much as I love being with my kids, it's nice to have one on one time with the girls! If you are in Kansas City, check out Stock Hill Grill! I had a wonderful time recently with friends there, as seen here!
4. Go for a workout - maybe even try something new! I tried pilates on a reformer not too long ago, and have loved it since! I love trying new things, because you never know what you'll fall in love with! Plus, getting a good workout feels good and is good for ya!
5. Go to the spa (or at least ask for a gift card/service as a gift for later)! Taking time to take care of yourself (including your skin!) is SO important. Facials and massages are my favorite - but with warmer temps and sandals season creeping in, I probably need a major pedi!
6. Go strawberry picking! My kids can't wait to go back this year already. This is a great way to get outside, learn about food and then come home and make something (or just eat!) sweet. :)
