Among the various categories, fashion shopping (clothes, footwear, etc.) is the most common purchase category online for millennial moms (82%), followed by make-up & beauty and food & groceries (70% each). Baby Care is another important category for these shoppers (at 64%).
Useful gifts could include baby care essentials such as blankies, wipes, and gentle skin care products for both mother and baby. Luxurious treats for the mother like scented candles, non-alcoholic wines, chocolates and cook vouchers for delicious and easy ready made meals can make her feel cared for and relaxed.
The priority considerations for Mother's Day are your own mother and, if you have children, their mother, followed by any widowed mothers in your family, including grandmothers and aunts—but etiquette doesn't require you to include everyone. "Allow the rest of your family to take care of their own," says Swann.
The most thoughtful gifts are ones that have, well, thought behind them. Thoughts about what brings joy to the recipient, what they want, need, and what they didn't know they couldn't live without until it arrived at their doorstep.
On average, those celebrating plan to spend $254.04 on Mother's Day gifts and celebrations, the second highest per-person figure, following last year's record $274.02 per person.
Americans purchasing gifts expect to spend an average of $172 on moms this year — a 24% drop from $225 last year. Men ($227) plan to spend more, on average, than women ($112) to celebrate moms, with married men with kids younger than 18 planning to spend heavily at $322.
