Have you started planning for Mother’s Day? The special day falls on Sunday, 10 May 2026 in Singapore, and if you need sure-win gifting ideas, we tell you what mums really want for Mother’s Day. Besides their birthdays, it’s the only day when mums get treated like queens with gifts and crafts aplenty. Whether it’s for a mum-to-be, a new mum or a seasoned mum, we’ve put together 20 Mother’s Day gift ideas that’ll make any mum, including us, happy. Take note, husbands! And if you’re taking mum out, here are more ways to pamper mum.
All the best Mother’s Day gifts in Singapore!
1. Wake up and smell the flowers
As cliché as it may look, a bouquet of lovely flowers for Mother’s Day never fails to put a smile on our faces. Go with carnations, the symbol of familial love, or pink roses for appreciation and gratitude. Better yet, order mum’s favourites flowers from the best florists in Singapore. Psst, lots of our top picks do same-day or next-day delivery. For something handmade that lasts forever, LEGO’s Flower Bouquet is the perfect gift! Especially when it’s built with your heart and soul. For the practical mums, a Cash Bouquet for Mother’s Day will surely put a smile on their face.
2. A personalised storybook
How about surprising mums with a personalised storybook this Mother’s Day to make storytime even more special? We say this pressie is the perfect way for littlies to say thank you. Especially for all those wonderful storytime sessions come bedtime, night after night. This heartwarming book from Wonderbly features rhyme and colourful illustrations and can feature a mummy alongside up to three kiddos. We’ve also found lovely personalised book options from Your Surprise!
3. Gift some pampering goodness
We will never say no to pampering gifts, especially if they involve luxurious ingredients like ginseng. Sulwhasoo’s facial programs not only feature their nourishing range of skincare products but they also include massages with jade massagers. For time-strapped mums, Gracious Nook‘s facial + hair reflexology combos are the best 2-in-1 treatments. But if all mum wants is to have some TLC at home, choose from our list of the best mobile spa services to surprise her for Mother’s Day!
4. Gift mum a gift set (that we guarantee she’ll love!)
This vibrant gift set from Uncommon Goods to amp up that rest and recuperation score all mums need? It comes packed with a sari robe, hand-sewn blooming teas and more. We can’t say enough about Giftr, the online marketplace for gifts, and their extensive range of gift sets. Find anything from preserved flowers and food stuff, to personalised gifts and more. You can also shop by budget over here.
5. Beautiful new PJs or loungewear (and extra sleep!)
Sometimes the gift of good rest is all we need, especially for us mums. And the road to good rest couldn’t start better than with a pair of comfy PJs or loungewear! Lucky for us, Singapore is far from short of local brands offering luxurious loungewear. We’ve waxed lyrical about Rawbought‘s buttery-soft PJ sets, but we also love the ones from mumpreneur-owned RAPH & REMY and local brand SOJAO.
6. Sweet treats
It’s really a small gesture but to a dessert-loving mum, sweet treats are the fastest way to her heart (and stomach). We’re loving PAUL’s Cherry Blossom Cake with layers of matcha sponge cake and sakura white chocolate cream — it’s giving Japan cherry blossom season in a bite. Go rich and creamy with Cat & the Fiddle‘s Mint Cookies and Cream Cheesecake.
7. A portable massager
‘Mum back’ is absolutely a real thing – ask any mum and they’ll tell you the various aches and pains they feel in that area! So for the all the times she can’t set aside a couple hours for a professional massage, a portable massager would step in as her on-demand device for quick relief. Splurge on a Hydragun HeatPulse Back & Core Massager, that comes with three massage settings and heating function.
If it’s relief from soreness that mum needs, try Osim’s neck massager. And if that viral Tiktok eye massager has caught your eye, know that it has four modes for deep relaxation. All mums can do with some relief for Mother’s Day.
8. Wellness & beauty gadgets
While we love our facial treatments, there’s nothing quite like giving the gift of a beauty device for spa-quality facials at home – especially if mum is a huge beauty junkie! If you’re up for a splurge this Mother’s Day, Dr. Dennis Gross’ famed Spectralite Faceware Pro is the reigning queen in the world of LED beauty devices that can help with fine lines, acne and discolouration. Foreo will elevate mum’s cleansing regime with their top-of-the-line massagers and turn to Medicube for its 6-in-1 AGE R – Booster Pro to help with pore care, lifting, and contouring. Mum’s got panda eyes? Est.Lab’s Intelligent Eye Revitaliser is known to help with reducing puffiness and brighten up dark circles.
9. Perfume making workshop
How about making something for mum that she’ll love and wear? Like her very own signature scent? Bespoke perfume atelier, SIFR Aromatics, offers a personal perfume consultation where their in-house perfumer will craft a blend based on your preferences, habits, and memories. Or you can let mum DIY at scent workshops with Maison 21G. If you’re planning to head to Sentosa for the day, why not let mum sneak away to Scentopia to make her fragrance?
10. Sustainable gifts
If sustainability is something close to your mum’s heart, we suggest taking a green approach with your Mother’s Day gifts that’ll last all year-round. Chic mamas will love this local sustainable fashion brand, .bungkus which makes their stylish bags from single-use plastics. Customise a Photo Frame Speaker with Decibelist, known for their sustainably 3D printed speakers or shop bags made from recycled plastic bottles from Bellroy. Take your pick from collectives like The Social Space or GiftGood, where they carry products from sustainable and socially-impactful brands. If you are the type wake up late, GiftGood offers same-day delivery around Singapore!
11. Spoil mum with beautiful jewellery or homewares
Does mum love a bit of sparkle? Take your Mother’s Day gift-giving to the next level with a gorgeous bangle, bracelet, necklace or a stunning new pair of earrings to celebrate Mother’s Day this year. You can personalise trinkets and mix and match your very own sets at A Kind of OOOF. On top of the handcrafted 925 silver pieces, they also carry a range of gold jewellery.
While the team at Strait Lights also have beautiful jewellery like the iconic bracelets made from Japanese glass beads, we also love their homewares including candles, room sprays and Singapore tea towels!
12. Send mum on a trip
Yes, this will require a little bit of planning but trust us, there’s nothing like sending mum to her favourite destination for Mother’s Day. Make it a restorative trip with flights to trending wellness destinations like Phuket, Maldives, or find someplace close to Singapore for a quick getaway. Or if it’s nature she loves, Lavender season starts from late June in Sapporo, Japan.
13. A staycation
Some of us mums dream of nothing more than a short sabbatical without having to worry about the littlies in tow. Need we mention the long list of responsibilities that follow? Even if it’s just for a few hours! Here’s a nudge towards dads and kiddos, a day staycation (or overnighter) is a great gift to give hard-working mummies a break for Mother’s Day. All mums need is a few hours to themselves and a change of scene for a relaxing celebration.
14. Treat Mum to afternoon tea
We’d love to be spoilt with gourmet delights at one of these splendid afternoon teas. From tea for two to kid-friendly options, there’s something for every mum on this list! Even better if you can combine a special day out with an equally special gift.
15. Indulge at a Mother’s Day brunch
If an afternoon tea doesn’t float your boat, then opt to go all out with one of these fab Mother’s Day brunches in Singapore, or a set menu option. The restaurants are pulling out all the stops so get booking early; we reckon these could be in demand!
16. Capture mum’s beautiful side
Send mum for a full makeover and have her beautiful smiles captured with professional photographers. Involve the whole family with a day of taking family portraits, dress to a theme and create memories for Mother’s Day.
17. Mum’s favourite drinks
Mums fuel themselves through the day with their favourite drinks, so, why not give them what they need for Mother’s Day? Help mum start the day right with a bespoke hamper from Bacha Coffee or set up the space up with TWG French Early Grey candle, alongside a spot of tea for her mid-day break. If she needs her mummy juice, head over to Vivino shop, where they’ll be more than happy to recommend wines. Or order a fun gift box from Thirsty.com.
18. Treat mum to a new watch or strap
Timepieces makes for an excellent Mother’s Day gift, so how about a new watch for the leading ladies in your life? Cocomi has designer options from August Berg, BERING, Coach, Boss plus super-pretty Olivia Burton pieces. Make sure you check out their gift sets that can include elegant jewellery options. If vintage is more mum’s jam, we love the beautiful exclusive styles from Nakedglory Vintage, who are online and also often host pop-ups at fairs all around Singapore. Turn up her existing watches with bespoke watch straps from RSM Watch Strap. They come in all sorts of material, colours, and sizes, mum can switch up her straps to match her outfit anytime.
19. Make a difference and make someone else’s Mother’s Day
If you’re struggling with gifts this year, remember it’s the thought that counts. How about donating to a charity close to Mum’s heart? There are loads of charities out there that would value any support. You can make a donation to Aidha, a charity group that offers free language lessons to migrant domestic workers and lower income women in Singapore.
20. And don’t forget we love homemade gifts too!
Nothing melts our hearts like Mother’s Day gifts that are DIY crafts and cards from the littlies, so dads, take note! And, for further inspo on all things related to Mother’s Day gifts, check out what us HoneyKids mums want this Mother’s Day. Although truth be told, the best part about Mother’s Day is breakfast in bed, and getting to spend time together as a family (after a lie-in, of course…!)
Pssst – if all else fails, just tell mum how much she means to you – just like us in our vid below!
