Every August 15, Mother's Day is celebrated in our country, a whole day to thank the person who is so important in our lives. However, this year we must follow some restrictions that don't allow us to celebrate the way we would like.
Even so, that should not stop us from honoring Mom on her day, as a family, of course, always staying within our social bubble.
And to celebrate this great day, we have put together 7 activities you can do as a family without leaving your home.
There is nothing nicer than starting the day in the best way, and you can do that with a delicious breakfast in bed.
Let your imagination run wild with a special menu for a special day. You could make a typical Costa Rican breakfast or something bigger like a buffet, and let the guest of honor decide. Either way, it would be a lovely gesture.
Gifts are never out of place, and they become even more special when they are made by the youngest ones in the house.
Cards, photo frames and coffee mugs are small details that Mom will treasure forever, not so much for the object itself but for the meaning each of these gifts carries.
• Stay in bed late
The most important thing about this day is sharing, and what better way than staying in bed late, lying next to Mom.
It doesn't necessarily have to be sleeping. After breakfast in bed, you could share stories or fond memories of family activities you have had together: “remembering is living again.”
• Cook her favorite dish
After staying in bed all morning, it's time for lunch, and you can surprise Mom with her favorite dish.
“It's the little things that make the difference.” And if Mom's favorite dish is very elaborate, there is always the option of ordering express delivery, so you would still be treating her to lunch, only inside the home.
• Family games
After lunch, a board game would be a great way to spend a fun, exciting moment.
The games that stand out most for sharing as a family are guessing games or charades. Often you don't even need the physical board or game, since there are apps you can download and take advantage of.
Every mom loves to be pampered, so you could use the afternoon to give her a spa session at home.
Whether with body massages, facial masks or some aromatherapy, always aim for a moment of relaxation and rest for Mom to enjoy.
Movie night
And to end the day, you can pick a new release on any streaming platform, make some popcorn in the microwave and enjoy it as if you were at the movie theater.
Whichever activity you choose, we know Mom will be happy to share that special day with her family.
On behalf of CasaMax Inmobiliaria, we wish all moms a wonderful day.
