Valentine’s Day is around the corner, and it’s the best time to show your language of love for every mama in your life. These gift ideas will benefit every mama, be it your mom, your mother-in-law, your mama squad, and your mama colleagues.
Check out this mama Valentine’s Day gift suggestions for ideas on nice presents to give every mama in your life, depending on which love language* you go by.
More than words
If your top love language is sending out words of affirmation like “you did great,” “you were awesome,” “you go, mama!” then you can send out personalized gifts that print these mantras. It would be nice for a struggling mama to remember that she has an ally, so you could give your motherhood buddy a personalized bowling bottle that screams “you got this, mama!” Plus, it’s a practical gift idea!
Your mother-in-law who is–we’re sure–crazy about your kids, would love something to remember their lovely apos by. Get her a personalized pillow that bears her pictures with the grandchildren and add some “we love you lola” words. We’re certain you’ll get the best daughter-in-law tag for a while.
Acts of service
This love language entails doing something for your object of affection. This entails putting in time and effort like cooking their favorite dish, instead of buying a ready-made gift. If you’re a mama baker, bake muffins or cookies for everyone to share. With a good mixer, you won’t need to toil all day.
If you can’t find time but you want to do something to offload your mama or your best buddy from doing many household chores, hire a cleaning service for the day for them. You may also send a practical Valentine’s Day gift like this cordless vacuum cleaner.
Do you want to help a co-mama overcome struggles at work and in life? Give your work buddy the gift of self improvement with A Room Full of Purposes therapy sessions. The program allows participants to make realistic vision boards, learn how to manage stress at home and at work, and find purpose within themselves in case they feel their self-worth is no longer to be found.
Gift-giving mama
We know you’re reading this because you’re big on this love language. You delight in seeing your mama, mom-in-law, mom friends, and work colleagues express joy upon receiving your gifts. You either go big or think big on gifts, as this is your way of showing how you truly care. And we won’t disappoint – here are some unique ideas for the mamas in your circle.
Give your mama bff this bag that houses many, many things. Let your mama friend stay stylish with the Jujube Mini bff bag, your convertible pick for all things motherhood. It can be a backpack and a messenger bag, and it’s highly stain resistant, perfect for accidental baby spills.
Your mother-in-law or your very own mama will appreciate never going low battery while they’re with her amigas. Send her a compact power bank that’s also useful during an emergency.
You may also check out this Yao Korean Hairbrush, a not-so-ordinary tool that guarantees vavavoom hair volume and shiny locks. Made by hair experts from the land of everything big on beauty, this hairbrush has a unique curved body and moving vent design that gives a “Scalp Massage"" feature which helps to increase blood circulation resulting in a healthy hair root that minimizes hair fall.
If you feel you’ve given every possible gift, then let your family and mama friends choose for themselves! Give out an edamama e-gift card and let them choose from thousands of products that are available for the taking.
Quality time
If you’re into long conversations, best bonding moments, and unforgettable shared events, then quality time is your love language. Book a staycation with your family, enjoy new sights on Valentine’s Day (or sometime a week before to avoid crowds). You may also choose to do a pool party at home, where the heart is. Grab a Bestway Basketball Play Pool for that awesome family bonding even at the comforts of your abode.
You may also whisk away your mama friend ahead of Valentine’s Day and get a much-needed breather, either in an afternoon session of a painting class; learn new recipes from online cooking classes, or enroll in a public speaking workshop for that confidence boost.
You may also invite your friend over and have a nice coffee talk at home. Unleash your inner barista and get yourself a B Coffee Rookie Gift Set for those rant and reminiscing sessions with mama friends. It’s a wise investment, because you can eventually skip those expensive coffee shop drive-thrus!
Physical touch
Mamas who love hugs, holding hands and more– this is their love language. They will surely enjoy gifts that allow them to express their need for physical touch. Grab and give them a Favori Lavender Massage Oil or Botanicals in Bloom’s Stress Relief Oil with Frankincense. These will be perfect for work colleagues and your mama buddies.
You may also book a home service massage for your mom, mother-in-law, to ease all those body pain. Make sure you get a reputable massage company, and you may seek suggestions or other advice from other mamas in edamama Connect.
Most of all, this Valentine’s Day, don’t forget to practice self-love, mama! Get a two-hour break to enjoy a nice meal with your husband, an hour of me-time at the salon, or a spa date with your mama friends. Keep your heart full mama, because you cannot pour from an empty cup.
