Go Ahead, Make Mom’s Day
The mother in your life deserves the best. Here are 5 gifts—available locally—that she’ll love.
If May snuck up on you, the month’s holidays might have as well. Mother’s Day is Sunday, May 12, which means the clock is ticking to plan something special for the leading lady in your life.
There’s still time to make your brunch reservations, select the best cards and flowers and pick up a great gift. If you’re stuck on that last part, not to worry—we’ve got you covered. Here are our picks for gifts that Mom will love, no matter what her interests are.
For the mom who loves to garden:
If Mom has a green thumb, don’t forget about the footwear! These sturdy gardening boots from Duluth Trading in Ramsey are waterproof and slip-resistant, and the ultra-padded insoles make them comfy too.
*Available at Duluth Trading, 1300 Rte. 17, Ramsey, 201.335.0405
For the mom who’s always on the go:
She’ll always stay hydrated with this 40 oz. Stanley Quencher, available at REI in Paramus. With 19 different color options, you can make sure it’s exactly her taste.
*Available at REI, 2200 Bergen Town Center Dr., Paramus, 201.226.1560
For the sporty mom:
Pickleball is tons of fun and easy to pick up. If your mom is looking for new ways to stay active, she’ll get plenty of use out of a full pickleball set from Dick’s Sporting Goods in Paramus. (Maybe the two of you can play a few games together!)
*Available at Dick’s Sporting Goods, 240 NJ-17, Paramus, 201.261.2926
For the mom who loves to cook:
Mom’s already a wizard in the kitchen, so upgrade her ingredients. Try infused olive oil from Olive R Twist Olive Oil in Ridgewood to add something new to an old favorite recipe.
*Available at Olive R Twist Olive Oil, 34 Wilsey Square, Ridgewood, 201.882.1515
For the mom who has everything:
Can’t think of anything she wants? Gift her memories! An instant photo printer prints images directly from any Apple or Android device so they can be framed or added to scrapbooks instead of trapped in her phone’s camera roll.
*Available at Best Buy, 2400 Bergen Town Center Dr., Paramus, 201.556.1321
