Personalized Photo Frames
You can buy photo frames rather inexpensively for mom and personalize them for her. You can either have someone engrave them or paint them depending on the type of frame. A simple “I Love You” or “Happy Mother’s Day” can mean the world to mom. You can even put a picture in the frame for mom. One of her favorite pictures can be copied and blown up to put in it for her. Smaller children can put stickers around the frame.
The really young kids in the family can make mom a picture frame out of construction paper and poster board. They can even use popsicle sticks and put colored cotton balls on them. Framing a tiny handprint for mom will remind her how small you once were. You can use noodles to create a picture to go in the frame for her as well.
Jewelry
You can purchase a kit to make mom jewelry or purchase it already made rather inexpensively. A ring with yours and your siblings’ birthstones in it beside hers will make mom smile easily. Even a charm bracelet is a nice gift for mom on Mother’s Day. Each year you can give mom a new charm to put on the bracelet that commemorates something special that happened during the year.
Breakfast in Bed
While the kids may not be able to take mom out for breakfast they can make her breakfast. That is if they’re old enough to cook. Dad can help out if they aren’t. Making mom’s favorite breakfast and taking it to her in bed is an easy way to show your appreciation on her special day.
Plants

Scrapbook Supplies
Even mom has hobbies. If she enjoys making Scrapbooks, you can purchase her a few supplies so she can continue her hobby. You can even put together a small scrapbook for her to highlight your best memories of mom.
