It seems like special holidays or occasions have been passing us by like bullets for the past few months. You've got graduation coming up, World Water Day, International's Women Day, and so on. You must be tired keeping count huh? Well, one of the most important days of celebration is happening NEXT WEEK. If you've only got finals on your mind, let me help you out by giving you some untraditional ideas to treat yo' mama on Mother's Day.
1. Jump Your Stress Away at a Trampoline Park
Skyzone is a popular trampoline park that has multiple locations across the country.
2. Get a Couples Massage
Who says couples massage is only for a romantic couple! Usually, massage parlors offer a discount for Mother's Day.

3. Jjimjibam
If you want low cost but still enjoy the perks of being in a spa, then jjimjibam is the place for you. A Korean favorite, the open indoor area has multiple "heated" rooms where you can lie and let your pores open up to the heat. This is a great place to bond with your mom while having a place to relax.
If there is a Koreatown in your area, then there should be a jjimjibang around!
4. Try a New Restaurant Together
Like other couples, trying new things together is a great way to spend quality time and have more meaningful conversations, even with your mom! Yelp is a great resource to find that restaurant.Click here for Yelp "Hot and New"
5. If You're Miles Away from Your Mom, Watch a Movie Together (Separately)
This is where Netflix comes in handy. Select a movie that the both of you agree and have it play at the same time, wherever you guys are. This will bring the distance between you even closer.
6. Another Way to Manage the Long Distance: Online Shopping Together
This may probably only work for mother and daughters but if you both love shopping, then call each other and spend that $$!
7. A Simple "I love you"
If scheduling doesn't work out, buy her something sweet and practical. Moms love practical stuff and she'll appreciate it just as much. Throw in a card, too.
