Mother's Day. Do you remember when you were little and made cards, wrote poems, drew pictures and made breakfast for mom? It was all done with love, dedication, and purpose. 

Maybe you’re not able to visit your mom this year, but that doesn’t mean you can’t surprise her. So, today we’re sharing a few ideas to help you feel inspired and deepen your relationship with your mom. To become closer to each other, whether you’re far away or in the same room (after this crisis is over). Let’s make this Mother’s Day an extra special one!

10 Meaningful Mother's Day Gifts That Will Help You Strengthen Your Relationship

Many of these gifts work remarkably well online! Cooking her favorite food? Find the recipe online and simultaneously start cooking while you’re on a video call. This way, you can still be close! And the same principle holds for that trip you want to go on. Plan it online: where will you go? What places will you visit and for how long? How will you get there and who’s coming? Planning ahead and dreaming about those destinations will help you become even closer - even when you’re apart.

Of course, you can also play our Vertellis Family Edition online! Just meet each other for a video call, draw a card and read it. Now take turns in answering the questions and you’re all set. Many of our fans have sent us photos of them playing Vertellis online with friends and family. And those happy faces are just amazing! Maybe this game is just what your Mother’s Day needs?

Why do we say “thank you” to mothers around the world?

We, at Vertellis, believe that mothers deserve to be celebrated! Bringing a child into this world is nothing short of miraculous and raising children is one of the most rewarding, yet challenging experiences we can have. Life takes on a whole new meaning for moms and they are often putting themselves and their needs last. They take care of the whole family, plan and organize everyday life, navigate conflicts and find solutions, provide a safe and loving environment for their kids, nurture their relationships and constantly adapt to the ever-changing landscape of the outside world.  

Being a mother is a lifelong commitment to unconditional love and support for your kids. 

Flowers, jewelry, perfume, chocolates ... all these are "typical" gifts for Mother's Day. Sure, they’re nice and they show that you have made an effort. But, how about showing your mom she’s special and she deserves to have memorable experiences that last a lifetime? Giving her something meaningful, like time to get to know each other deeper and have genuine conversations about the things that matter.

💝Playing the Vertellis Family Edition game together can help you strengthen your relationship and create new memories that you will both look back on with a smile on your face! 

What is the best gift you can give someone?

We think it's spending quality time together, being fully present and giving your undivided attention to your mom or your family. 

We live in a world that’s always in a rush. We communicate via smartphones, tablets, digital platforms, and social media, and it’s often about things that are superficial or don’t really matter in the long run. How can we build meaningful relationships or strengthen the existing ones? 

Think about it: when was the last time you spent quality time with your mom? How did you both feel? What did you enjoy doing the most?

How can you strengthen your family relationships?

We are role models for our children and we can teach them how to have meaningful conversations, the importance of being present and giving each other time and attention, the joy of creating memories and experiences that last a lifetime. 

Whether we’ve challenged our parents or went against their will, it’s important to remember that a mother’s love is unconditional and she will always do the best she can for her kids. 

And so, how about playing the Vertellis Family Edition with your mom and the whole family on Mother's Day? With interesting questions and playful assignments, you will engage in honest, meaningful conversations while planning activities for the future. You will learn more about one another and strengthen your relationship with each other!

Have fun and a wonderful time on Mother's Day, together with your family! 💖 

💝And don't forget: Mom is the best!
