Gifts Celebrating Generations of Motherhood
Mother's Day in the U.S. this year falls on Sunday, May 14th. For 2023 the theme of Mommy Blog Expert's Mother's Day Gift Guide is "Generations: Gifts for Moms of Every Age." So, we've curated a wonderful collection of imaginative and thoughtful presents uniquely suited for giving to each mom generation: Moms, Grandmas, Great Grandmothers, and even Expectant Moms-To-Be. This also includes shopping inspo for daughters, sisters, and/or friends who are moms and the mother role models in your life.
Below you see pictured the most recent six generations (five of us mothers) of my maternal line. These females, including my grand daughter, daughter, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, are my inspiration for this year's collection of Mother's Day gift ideas. A special hats off to my own Daughter (my eldest triplet) on becoming a mommy, making me a first-time Grandmother and to my own Mother on the recent arrival of this, her fifth Great Grandchild.
Whether you're likewise blessed with a mom or have a mother figure in your own life no matter what generation she belongs to, you'll likely find the perfect gift to give her that shows how much you love and appreciate her.

Mom works hard and deserves a good night's sleep, right? This makes PeachSkin luxurious 1500 thread count level of softness sheet sets (including top sheet, fitted sheet, and pillow cases with European envelope closures) my top pick for comfort, quality and selection. There's truly so much to love about this brand's affordable and luxe velvet-like sheet sets, available in nine different sizes: Twin, XL Twin, Full, XL Full, Queen, King, California King, Split King and Split Head.
What's more is that there are 24 PeachSkin sheet colors to choose from, including the Lavender Mist pictured here.

An ideal gift for new and exhausted mothers but also for anyone who experiences night sweats.

Being a mother is an endless 24/7 job, so give mom a beautiful self-care set so she can pamper herself and carve out some well-deserved time alone. She will love you for it. This sweet 3-piece set is wrapped in a bow and comes with a cotton candy scented pink heart-shaped "Love" bar of soap, a classic vanilla scented candle to set the mood while she bathes, and a jar of body butter to smooth on after a nice, long soak in the tub.

LEGO Brick Botanicals Puzzle from Chronicle Books, $17.95
Grandmas who are LEGO, flower and/or puzzle fans will love this gift. With 1000 puzzle pieces to assemble, this will provide hours of enjoyment as well as challenge and sharpen her mind, spatial abilities, and fine motor skills. Also a great distraction between visits to her grandkids so she doesn't miss them too much. What a great way to send a different kind of flower arrangement to granny for Mother's Day that she can enjoy without having to worry about watering it. When completed this puzzle measures 25" x 20. Just think upon completion, if glued down onto a cardboard base, your grandmother can even continue enjoying this puzzle as a piece of wall art for years to come.
Gifts for Great Grandmothers
Heirloom Video Book, $49 - $69
No wifi connection is required for the mom you gift this to, making it ideal for giving to family matriarchs who may not own a laptop or smartphone. After choosing a hard book cover (the Love book is one of 18 covers available), the company will ship the book to you which also includes a fully rechargeable battery. After this arrives visit the link provided on their site to personalize up to 20 minutes of family memory videos depending on which book you've ordered.
When you mail or present this gift to mom for Mother's Day in-person, all she has to do is open the book's cover to enjoy watching the precious crisp and clear videos of loved ones via the 5" video screen and speaker. As a DIY gift for more tech-savvy moms, you might also consider shipping directly to the recipient so they can create (wifi connection required) their own video book.
Hug in a Box Plush Bear Gift from Boxfull, $44.95 - $74.95
Can't be with the mom in your life this Mother's Day? Send her love and affection with a Hug in a Box large plush teddy bear from Boxfull instead. When this gift arrives your gift recipient will get a bear hug as she opens the box and the bear's arms reach out to the side. Buy the Hug in a Box Bear as shown with a personalized card included, like I received, or select from one of the other Hug in a Box choices featuring the same adorable hugging bear along with other fun items. In addition to Mother's Day, you'll find great gift box ideas for all kinds of occasions throughout the year here, like birthdays, graduations, and more.
Gifts for Expectant Moms
Lil' Toasty Warmable Plush Animal from Keep Going First Aid, $19.99
Soft and cozy for warm snuggles, the adorable plush Lil Toasty is a warmable plush animal filled with clay beads, dried French lavender, and polyester fiber. Fully microwaveable, it heats in 20 seconds to soothe and comfort little ones, as well as to help pregnant moms be more comfortable.
Applied warm to the body, Lil' Toasty provides soothing heat therapy improving circulations and blood flow, as well as mini aches and pains such as sore muscles, sprains, neck and back pain. Place Lil' Toasty in a resealable bag and place in freezer, then use for cold therapy. Non-toxic, easy to surface clean with a damp cloth. Comes in four super cute designs, including Koala (pictured), Elephant, Sloth and Unicorn and packaged in a gift-ready see-through display box. A fun idea as a salve to warm or cool aches, pains, bug bites, and more for kids too.
LÍLLÉbaby All Season Baby Carrier, $99
The Complete 6-in-1 All Seasons Baby & Toddler Carrier 6-in-1 from LÍLLÉbaby is a wonderful gift idea for a pregnant mom, new mother, or mommy with more than one young child. Designed with a unique convertible seat that ergonomically supports little ones, this carrier is suitable for both newborns and toddlers from 6 to 45 lbs, expanding as a child grows.
Features we love include the zip-down front panel which opens to expose breathable mesh when warm it's outside and zips up for cold protection similar to a windbreaker. Equally important, this expandable baby carrier is designed for comfortable wearing thanks to adjustable straps and ample padding at the shoulders and waist, contoured shoulder straps that smartly distribute a child's weight, and lumbar lower back support. Shown here in the Stone Gray style, this highly practical carrier is available in 12 different color styles, including solid colors and two-tone hue combinations and patterns.
Gifts for Daughter, Sister, Friend Moms
MyBevi Premium Steel Vacuum Insulated 26 Oz Tumbler, $20
What a great idea for carpool and active lifestyle moms. How about a customizable oversized tumbler with cover, drinking spout and a heavy duty attached lucite loop to hold your keys and juggle your busy, often hectic lifestyle? With high quality stainless steel interior and sized to fit in most car drink holders, it's perfect for keeping your morning coffee piping hot while driving the kids to school or watching your son or daughter on the field playing soccer or any other sport. Also a must to bring with you when you need to stay hydrated with ice cold water at the gym or while traveling on road trips this summer. Designed in the USA and easy to clean, this tumbler is available in 11 different colors including the candy pink style pictured.
From the British luxury gift emporium offering a full line of writing instruments and leather journals. An exquisitely designed leather floral journal made in Hungary and Italy, I just love this retro vintage paper hand-crafted Bomo Art Notebook Journal red roses style which was hand made by artisans using traditional book binding techniques. Give this blank book to a Mom who already loves to journal or to a mother who might like to start jotting down her personal thoughts each day. Pair it with the Platinum Fude Brush Cartridge Pen CF-2000 made in Japan which is beautifully embossed with gold Japanese characters and can also be engraved or fitted with a converter to use with bottled ink.
