Start the day by treating your mom to a delightful brunch at her favorite café or preparing a homemade breakfast spread with all her favorite dishes. Take a leisurely stroll through Trinity Park or the Fort Worth Botanic Garden, enjoying the beauty of Fort Worth and each other’s company.
If weather permits, plan a picnic in the park, complete with sandwiches, snacks, and refreshing drinks. Capture the moment with some fun family photos to cherish for years to come.
Consider organizing a family gathering, inviting loved ones to join in the celebration. Share stories, laughter, and create new traditions together. You could even plan some fun activities like board games or a friendly sports match to add extra joy to the day.
Most importantly, take the time to express your gratitude and appreciation for all that Mom does. Whether it’s through heartfelt words, thoughtful gestures, or a simple hug, let her know just how much she means to you. After all, Mother’s Day is not just about the activities, but about celebrating the special bond between a mother and her children.
Here are some other ideas to show MOM how much you appreciate her—

5. Indulge in Some Retail Therapy with Mom
Every mom has “a thing” or favorite store. Treat your mom to an afternoon of safe, social distanced shopping and buy her something nice, something she would not have bought for herself. Be safe and Buy Local. That makes Mom happy and keeps the Fort retail wheels turning. #Support Our Fort. We love supporting Fort Worth businesses so that’s always a Bonus. A good day of shopping is always followed by a good glass of wine at your favorite spot. See #4!
6. Host Your Own SIP and PAINT Class
Here is another way to Support the Fort, bring some creative fun home by buying some art supplies and opening a bottle of your finest Cab. Pick a subject (like the fruit bowl on your kitchen counter or Dad lounging on the sofa) and start painting. Just don’t expect Mom to hang your work of art in the living room? Don’t like the PAINT part of this idea, no problem…..Host Your Own Sip and Sit with Mom. How’s that?
7. Give Mom a Mani-Pedi
Treat Mom to a little pampering to encourage mother-daughter bonding. You’re out with Mom and pampering her (and yourself). Doesn’t that feel good?
8. GARDEN TOGETHER
Stop by your favorite garden center, back to #Support the Fort, and plan a day of gardening with Mom. It can be as intense or light as you want. It might end up with a nice Sip and Sit with Mom on the back porch…and that’s always a good thing!
9. Adopt an Asian Elephant for Mom
Mother’s Day Brunch at The Fort Worth Zoo is SOLD OUT, but you can still celebrate Mom . Celebrate Mom by supporting one of the Fort Worth Zoo’s newest mothers, Scarlett the mandrill! This special adoption includes a mandrill plush, a personalized adoption certificate, an animal fact sheet, a coloring kit and a Zoo publication, all packaged inside an animal carrier box! This unique gift is the perfect way to show your appreciation for Mom while supporting the care and feeding of the animals at the Fort Worth Zoo.

10. Plan a Game Night for Mom
You know what games Mom likes to play—card games, board games, charades, or any other party game. If Mom likes it, let’s play it!
11. No Work Pass
OK this should be a given. Moms do not work on Mother’s Day. If your mom tries to participate in work activities, present her with a “No Work Pass” for the day. Sit her down and take over.
12. Custom Coupons for Mom
Put a coupon book together for things that you and Mom can do together, for her day and for the next few months. Can you ever spend enough time with Mom? Ideas are easy—lunch and a movie, a wine outing or Happy Hour, a spa day. The list is endless and it gives Mom lots more things to look forward to.
