We’ve always believed that moms deserve to be celebrated, not just today, but every day. But then comes Mother’s Day, which is one day when doing something extra special feels even more joyful (and way more fun). It’s your chance to say, “Mum, this day is all yours, and I’m going to make it unforgettable.” But here’s the real question: what should you do? What will truly bring her joy? Well, one thing’s certain that she’d love nothing more than to spend quality time with you, probably even more than any fancy gift. And to make sure you’re never short of ideas on how to hang out with her, we’ve rounded up some fun date ideas to help you plan the perfect day!
10 Fun And Thoughtful Date Ideas With Mom To Try This Mother's Day
Spoil Her Silly At A Spa & Salon
Give your mum the gift of luxury with a joint salon session. Trust us, a little pampering goes a long way, especially for moms who are used to juggling 10,000 things every second without skipping a beat. We’d recommend starting with a soothing mani-pedi and a calming head massage. Then, take it up a notch with an ultra-relaxing Swedish or Ayurvedic massage. She’ll feel like a queen, and you’ll get to unwind together!

Shop Till You (Don’t) Drop
Shopping is an answer to anything and everything. While a run-to-the-mall plan is always a great idea, if the weather does not seem to be a problem, then street shopping at Janpath or Sarojini Nagar could be really fun. Even more fun would be seeing your mom using her bargaining power to hoard maximum clothes and accessories.

Watch A Play
Not that going to the movies is a bad idea, but catching a live play at the theatre is a whole different experience. And let’s be real, with the summer sun showing no signs of mercy, this indoor date is the perfect way to keep you and your mom comfy, cool, and totally entertained.
LBB Tip: We recommend that you check theatre play schedules and make bookings beforehand.
Hit Up A Cafe
Cafes are simply the best for one-on-one conversations. If you and your mom don’t get to talk as much as you’d like, she’ll truly appreciate some quality catch-up time at a cosy spot. Honestly, what’s a better combo than great conversation, delicious food, and a cute space to unwind? Plus, we’re pretty sure she’ll spill some top-tier family gossip while you’re at it!

Learn Something New Together
Learning something new together with your mom is a great way to build a stronger bond. You can get your hands dirty at a pottery class or book a one-day yoga session. The options are endless because the town has SO MUCH to offer; think dancing, shooting, and more!
Plan A Trip With Her
The best part about Mother’s Day is that it falls on the weekend, making a quick getaway totally doable. If trip planning isn’t your thing, plenty of women-only travel groups can handle the details for you, and at surprisingly affordable prices. And if you’re up for splurging but can’t leave the city, why not treat yourselves to a luxurious staycation instead? Either way, it’s a win!
Go For A Quick Nail Sesh
A cute nail sesh every now and then never hurt anybody, and what better way to make your mom feel extra special than by treating her to a fresh set of nails? (Yes, we’re being dramatic, but you get the gist.) She’ll be admiring those nails for weeks, and every glance will remind her of the day you spent together. Cute, very cute.

Sing Your Hearts Out
I don’t know if it’s the same for you, but we’ve seen so many moms who love to hum and sing around the house. So why not give her a proper stage and make her feel like the star she is? Honestly, it could be one of the most fun and memorable gifts ever. And with so many cool spots in Delhi, like Majnu Ka Tila and Hauz Khas, you can easily book a karaoke session and spend the day making melodious memories!
Take A Stroll Through History
If you and your mom are history buffs, a trip to the museum to uncover some of the greatest historical mysteries could be the perfect plan. Our top pick is The Prime Minister's Museum. It’s massive, so you’ll easily spend a couple of hours exploring everything. And don’t miss the Nehru Planetarium, a dome-shaped theatre that projects beautiful images of the night sky, constellations, and planets, making it an out-of-this-world experience!
