For the confident risk-taker

She can even check her appearance with the mirrored finish before she heads out for the day.

Planning on treating your mum to a road trip when the social distancing rules have been lifted? A handy camera will keep those memories alive. Choose a lightweight and compact design, like Canon’s EOS M200, so she can snap away. The beginner-friendly camera has a Creative Assist function that can shorten the learning curve.

For the daring foodie

Mandarin Oriental, Singapore Mother’s Day Takeaway Brunch, SGD338/~USD238.37 for a family of four

Since we can’t treat her to a yummy meal outside, why not bring the feast to her? Have a curated five-course meal from Oriental Mandarin Singapore delivered to her door so she can indulge in the sumptuous spread. Their menu includes luxurious seafood platters, decadent pasta dishes, mouthwatering main courses, and a sweet medley of desserts. You can also choose to top it off with a bottle of wine. Finally, let’s not forget the special floral arrangement that’s as lovely as mummy.

She’ll be waking up with a smile on her face every morning!

For the homebody

Asakuki Essential Oil Diffuser, SGD47.99/~USD33.88 (amazon.sg)

Is your mum a certified auntie? Treat her to an essential oil diffuser that floods the room with a lovely fragrance. If you’re looking for a dual-tasker, this Asakuki Essential Oil Diffuser from Amazon also functions as a humidifier. So while it dispenses a nice scent, it also improves the space’s air and atmosphere quality and protects her from excessively dry air, microorganisms, allergens, and dust. It’s a practical and useful gift she can use every day to her heart’s content.

There's nothing that can compare to a mother's love. Hopefully, this Mother's Day gift guide will help you find something that will remind her of how thankful you are for her love and support. Greeting our mummy readers an advanced Happy Mother's Day!
