Mother's Day, which falls on May 11 this year, is the time when children and even adults visit different stores and boutiques to get their mothers a present as a token of appreciation.

Presents depend on the savings in the piggy bank for the kids, and the pay check budget for those working. Maybe this year, a change of that tradition should be observed. A mother appreciates the efforts of her children, especially when the gift is personalized or something that is uniquely made for her.

What do Moms want?

Customized Items

Many people do this to several things like a mug. This is the simplest. A big mug printed with a message can be enough. Colored glues with glitters are available in school supplies stores. Instead of buying a card, there's always an option to create. There are tons of ways to do with a customized card. Papers, glues, stickers, colored pens, etc., are available at local school supplies shop.

Make a Scrapbook

A well-crafted photo album can also work with messages from your siblings, dad and other people close to her. Place the photos in it and all the memorable and fun stuff with mom. A sequence of photos reminiscing her youth to your best family moments would be heart-warming.

Create a Video

Get creative with moviemaker. A sequence of her solo shots, her memorable experiences, photos with the family, her friends, co-workers, etc. can be exciting to touch a mother's heart. Her favorite songs should be included in the movie as the background while the photos are moving, including inspiring quotes.

Cook For Mom

A mother needs to feel special. For those who love cooking but never did get the chance to do it, now is the time. Take note of her schedule. If she's fast-paced during breakfast and has to go to work only minutes after waking up, you may surprise her over dinner. A candlelight dinner would be a great idea and everyone in the family can help pull this off.

Strategically place candles around your house, and scatter petals on the floor from the door to the dining room. Once she opens the door, the trail of petals will lead her to the dining room. When she gets there, everybody will say out loud: Happy Mother's Day, Mom! Well, the greeting can be changed. Other people might prefer saying a different greeting.

People can please their mothers even in their smallest little ways. Big purchases are not necessary to make. These are the little ways that give her an assurance that she is loved. That's her most favorite part of the gift.

Mother's Day only happens once a year, so children should better conjure their creativity for their mother's happiness. For those who don't have ideas yet, perhaps these several things can become an inspiration. Consider these a jumpstart for creative engines.

Kate Middleton will celebrate International Mother's Day for the first time as a mum on Sunday.

The International Mother's Day 2014, which falls on 11 May, will perhaps be the Duchess of Cambridge's most emotional event since she became a mother in July.

The 32-year-old Kate, who gave birth to Prince George on 22 July, is most likely to have a private celebration with her nine-month-old son and with Prince William by her side, though the Palace has not released any official statement on the same.

The first-time royal mum also marked UK's Mother's Day, which fell on 30 March (on the fourth Sunday of Lent season) this year, in a low-key fashion.

Since stepping into motherhood, Kate has had another private celebration with the future heir and close family and friends, and that was for her 32nd birthday at Kensington Palace in January.

Though Kate Middleton has kept most of her life's celebrations private since the birth of the little prince, the young mum was extensively photographed with Prince George for the first time during their official visit to New Zealand and Australia last month.

As Kate prepares for her private celebrations on this International Mother's Day, have a look at the royal mother-son bonding in some of the most adorable photos of Kate Middleton and Prince George below.
