6. Mother’s Day gift: Spa treatment

Treat mama to some pampering at one of our fave spas – choose from Auriga Spa at Capella, Raffles Spa, Sofitel Spa at Sofitel Sentosa or Chi Spa at Shangri-La. You can also check out our roundup of fave facials in Singapore and best onsens! Looking for a spa with a difference? Book mum in for a spa-cation at Tempat Senang in Batam – or you can buy a Mother’s Day gift of a full day’s worth of spa treatments, plus lunch before returning by ferry – and it’ll probably still be cheaper than a luxe spa at a hotel in town.

You can even surprise mama at home with a mobile beauty service! Think mani-pedis, massages and even hairstyling services without even having to leave the house. Check out our guide for a full list of mobile beauty services that come to you.

8. Kobo or Kindle: Practical Mother’s Day gift

Does mum like to read or would she like to if she could only find the books she wanted easily? Why not gift her an e-reader as a Mother’s Day gift? The two big brands are Amazon’s Kindle and Rakuten’s Kobo tablet. Kobo provides the larger range as compared to Kindle, and we do love how you can link up your Kobo to the OverDrive app that lets you borrow and download eBooks/audiobooks from the Singapore library. You can find ereaders easily on Amazon.sg and the nifty Kobo Nia (we can vouch for this as an awesome gift for partners and even older kids) costs as little as $151.
