Mother's Day is just around the corner and if you're out of ideas on how to spoil your mum, we're here to help!
Here's a list of different activities you can do for every type of mum.
1. Book a staycation
Whether your mum likes the city or prefers being in nature, there are plenty of cool holiday spots around Malaysia.
Even if it's not a plane ticket to Bali, you can still treat her to a special getaway to give her some much-deserved rest.
Check out more staycation lists here.
2. Pamper her to a massage or spa session
Book a massage/spa session to make sure that she truly gets to relax. If your mum is the type who prefers tangible gifts, you can gift her with a massage tool or massage chair instead.
3. Attend a batik painting session
On a budget but wanna treat your mum to something special? This batik painting workshop in Central Market only costs RM15. Plus, you get to take home a cute little batik painting to treasure the time you spent together!
4. Splatter paint in the dark or attend an art workshop together
There are several art studios around Klang Valley that host art workshops so you can get creative with your mum.
For something a lil' different, head to Splatter Art Factory in Subang where you can paint with neon paints in the dark! It'll definitely be a memory to remember.
5. Hold a mini photoshoot with your family or your mum and her friends
Tell your mum to get dressed up and head to this self-photo studio in Mont Kiara for a mini photoshoot with the family or her besties! The studio allows you to take photos in colour or in black and white for RM30 onwards.
Your sentimental mama will be over the moon at new physical/digital photos of her family or friends she can show off to others.
6. Take part in a baking workshop
Whether your mum is a seasoned baker who wants to learn new recipes or techniques or a first-timer, there are baking workshops held all around KL and PJ that are loads of fun. All tools and ingredients will be provided. All you need to do is show up!
7. Build a shelf or rack at this woodworking workshop
Based in PJ, ADIAIDA hold woodworking workshops for women, as well as duos (you and your mum) that are both therapeutic and lots of fun. You can learn to build racks, shelves, cupboards, tables, and more that can be placed anywhere in the home and serve as a fond memory for you and your mum.
8. Do a pottery class together
Pottery can be really therapeutic. There are pottery workshops in Klang Valley that you can book for just under RM100 per person. And you get to take home your creation of the day. For mums who love getting creative, this could be the perfect gift this Mother's Day!
