Mother’s Day is celebrated every second Sunday of the month of May.  Of course, it is the day when mothers in particular and motherhood in general are celebrated.  We see people crowding into gift stores and supermarkets looking for the perfect gifts for mothers the day before Mother’s Day itself and being frustrated in the process.

Well, why become one of the throng?  You can always shop online for great eco-friendly Mother’s Day gifts delivered right to your own or your recipient’s doorstep.  It’s that easy, really, to be thoughtful on the special day for mothers around the world.

Cookies and Chocolates

Not just any cookies but organic cookies!  Look for natural, organic ingredients on the label as well as green packaging to make your mom happy and make her friends green with envy.  You may have the cookies in an arrangement complete with a teddy bear and a few choice organic chocolates.

Bird Feeders

A pretty addition to your mom’s garden, a hummingbird feeder comes with preservative-free nectar mix that will attract the beautiful birds like bees to flowers.  You may also have her favorite flowers delivered to her doorstep although the flowers are still in their seed forms.

Scented Candles

Go for soy wax since these are very friendly to both the environment and to your health.  You will love it that the candles have been made from soy, a highly sustainable food crop, and manufactured using green processes.  Plus, your mom’s lungs will not be inhaling all the toxic substances that come from using petroleum-based candles.

Organic Flower Bouquet

And what better way to tell your mother just how much you love her than with flowers?  But not just any flowers but organic flowers, at that.  You can mix and match all kinds of purple flowers like lavender roses, lavender mardi gras aster and purple trachelium, if that’s her favorite colors.

Spa Set

Instead of giving mom homemade love coupons where one of the prizes is a spa day, you can just give her a spa set.  Look for a spa kit that includes botanical, organic, and natural, items like bath and shower wash, body oil and lavender bath, Dead Sea mineral mud masque, and a hydrating honey sugar scrub, complete with a luxurious soft washcloth.

Tree Kit

For the ultimate in eco-friendly Mother’s day gift, you have the tree kit.  Simply put, it is a kit that may consist of a tree sapling in a biodegradable container together with a booklet on how to grow the plant into a majestic tree.  To ensure that the tree will live, you can choose from a wide variety of trees, which includes maple, oak or magnolia, depending on the location of the gift recipient.

Indeed, your mom, sisters, aunties and other female relatives and friends will appreciate that while you are thinking of them on their special day, you are also looking after the health of Mother Nature herself.  Truly, yours is a thought to love for all seasons.
