The best sentimental Mother’s Day gifts

Moms: We owe them the world. After all, they gave us one. Literally.

There are a lot of ways to show your mom how much you love them on Mother’s Day, but nothing hits quite like a gift that’s truly sentimental. You know, a gift that really means something. One that will cause your mom to get a little misty with just one look. (Gifting is the only time you should be making your mom cry, by the way. No sad tears here.)

That’s a tall order, though. A sentimental gift requires creativity as well as earnestness, and not everyone is a gifted gift-giver. But we are, and if you need some ideas, we’ve got you covered.

Below you’ll find sentimental Mother’s Day gift options that will have your mom saying “awwww, kiddo” for years to come.
