When is Mother’s Day in Singapore?

Mother’s Day falls on Sunday, 8 May 2022 in Singapore this year. Be sure to mark your calendar and make those reservations to celebrate this special day with your life giver! Not sure what to do with your mum? We’ve got you covered with a slew of Mother’s Day activities to consider.

Unique Mother’s Day activities for the homebody mum

1. Dedicate a song to her on the radio

Is your mum more of a homebody who doesn’t really enjoy jostling through a crowd or a fancy high tea session? Fret not, you can still express your love without stepping out of the door. Go the old-school way and dedicate your mum’s favourite song, along with a heartfelt message to her on the radio channel that she always listens to! Be sure to tune in to the radio with your mum to see her face light up in surprise.  This sweet gesture will definitely make your mum feel special and appreciated!

2. Help with housework

This Mother’s Day activity might seem like a no-brainer but we assure you your mum will be very thankful to have that well-deserved rest for the day! Of course, this shouldn’t be just a one-day event and you should help out whenever you can, but we understand that with our busy work schedules, sometimes it’s hard to do so. Take some time out and help your mum out with daily household chores like vacuuming, mopping the floor and doing the laundry. The list goes on and should be customised to whatever is on your mum’s to-do list. Gather some household cleaning products and get started!

3. Drama night with mum

Lying on the couch chilling and watching shows without a care in the world has got to be the most perfect form of relaxation. Put on your mum’s favourite K-drama, Netflix drama, or Chinese drama and indulge in a drama marathon with her all night long! This therapeutic Mother’s Day activity also allows you ample time to bond and cuddle up with your mum to make her feel loved. Don’t forget the chips and popcorn! Create a cozy ambience for the special occasion by setting up a projector and adorning the room with the best scented candles!

4. Kick some butt at a fitness class together!

If you and your mum are adrenaline junkies, then spend time at an exercise class together! Grab your yoga mat and be zen together at a yoga class. Or get your hearts pumping with HIIT workouts and indoor spin classes (or buy a spinning bike for her) — mum will get into the groove of things in no time! Encourage her to start on a physical workout she’s always wanted to try this Mother’s Day Singapore 2022. You never know, it may just end up becoming a weekly date activity with your mother!

5. Tour Singapore on a bicycle with mum

Be a tourist in Singapore for a day with mum. Simply rent a bike (or buy your mum a foldable bike or city bike) and go for a spin! One popular cycling route starts from East Coast Park where you and your mum get to enjoy some sea breeze. The path will take you through the scenic area at Gardens by the Bay and the Marina Barrage. We suggest taking a break here to enjoy some local specialities such as satay and Hokkien mee at Satay by the Bay before continuing your trip to Marina Bay. To protect yourself and your mum, be sure to deck out in essential cycling gear before hitting the trails!

6. Bake away!

With a multitude of baking videos and Mother’s day cake recipes floating around on the internet, baking at home with your mum is a great Mother’s Day activity to try out! All you need are the necessary baking equipment for the cake you are making. This includes an electric mixer — unless you are taking this as an opportunity to tone your arms! 

7. Cook up a storm!

Many of us are lucky enough to enjoy a home-cooked meal that our mum places on the table every single day? Instead of spending hundreds of dollars at a fancy restaurant this Mother’s Day in Singapore, take the lead in the kitchen and cook a simple 3-course home-cooked meal with mum! From rice cooker recipes to Nonya kueh recipes for dessert, these easy-to-prepare meals taste great and require basic culinary skills. A vase of flowers and a beautiful greeting card with a heartfelt message will complete the ensemble beautifully. Get mum to dress up for the scrumptious meal — this will surely be a memorable Mother’s Day activity for the family!

8. Go cafe hopping with mum

Is an afternoon cuppa mandatory to get mum through the day? If you answered yes, it’s time to bring mum cafe hopping so she can enjoy her coffee in fashion! Check out these famous Tiong Bahru cafes and be sure to sneak in some brunch and gossip! Dress up together with mum and encourage her to swipe on a Korean lip tint and a maxi dress. It’ll make her feel like a tai tai going on a coffee date!

10. Attend a coffee workshop with mum

If your mum lives by the mantra “never stop learning”, she’ll surely find it meaningful to pick up a new skill this Mother’s Day 2022! For those of you who start the day with a cup of joe, sign up for a coffee workshop in Singapore to amp up your morning brew! From latte art to filter brew coffee courses, there’s a slew of different skills you can pick up. 

10. Experience omakase dining with mum

Want to treat your mum like royalty this Mother’s Day 2022? Take her out for an omakase meal in Singapore! Omakase translates to “I’ll leave it up to you” in Japanese – there’s no menu and the entire course is a surprise from the chef. It is usually tailored according to seasonality and availability, usually consisting of the finest, freshest ingredients! If your mum loves sushi and sashimi, she’ll definitely enjoy this unique Mother’s Day activity! 

Unique Mother’s Day activities for the fashionista mum

Embark on a mission of giving your mum a makeover session to make her feel beautiful and youthful once again. Treat your fashionista mum to a brand new outfit — from a dazzling dress to matching heels. Don’t forget to work your makeup skills on mum too! Thereafter, doll yourself up in a matching outfit and hit the streets with your DSLR camera for some shutter time! Alternatively, book a slot at a self photo studio in Singapore to have pictures taken with mum (and even grandma) professionally!

12. Matching mother and daughter manicures

From cooking to cleaning, mothers are usually too busy with the family to find time for themselves. This is why it’s important that mum gets a pampering session at the nail salon this Mother’s Day Singapore 2022. Treat mum to a relaxing manicure or pedicure (or both) session at one of these home-based nail salons. They are more intimate and affordable so you need not worry about breaking the bank when mum decks her nails in bling! Plus, you get to spend quality time with her through this enjoyable Mother’s Day activity.

13. Gift mum a hair transformation

Otherwise, pamper yourself and mum to a salon treatment for Mother’s Day 2022 – do remember to reserve a slot early! Not sure what hair colour will suit mum?
