6 types of mums and what to get them this Mother’s Day

MOTHER’S Day is around the corner and to show her your love and appreciation – why not get her something, especially for her? After all, it’s a way to say “I love you” to each and every amazing mum out there.

To make your gift-giving decisions a little bit easier, here's a list of what you can find for every kind of mum at Pavilion Bukit Jalil this Mother’s Day.

The DIY Mum

She’s a crafty queen who loves nothing more than creating something herself. If you passed by a restaurant and wanted to try the food, she would probably say, “Why waste money? I’ll make it for you at home!” 

Either that, or she’s always doing something new, whether it’s putting together a cabinet, crocheting, or gardening.

For the DIY mum, get a gift that will keep her entertained, inspired, and engaged for hours on end?

A fantastic book is the perfect way to show your love and appreciation for all that she does, and to help her unwind and escape into a world of words.

Or if she's into curated skincare, why not take her to DIY her own skincare based on her skin needs. We guarantee that she’s going to love you for this.

The Tiger Mum

The Tiger Mum is the ultimate helicopter parent (but don’t let her hear you say that!).

She's always on the lookout for ways to help her kids to be the best that they can be, whether it’s sending you for all those piano, dance and tuition classes when you were younger, or pushing you to follow your career dreams.

These mums can be a handful, but everything they do is done with love.

If you have a Tiger Mum, then you'll need to get her something she can brag about while also helping her relax and unwind.

A beautiful handbag is the way to go, followed by a blowout at the hairdresser that will have her looking and feeling her best.

Tiger mums are also known for being a fiery force, so take her for some yummy hot wings that’s just as spicy as she is to end the day. She’s bound to call all her friends the next day to tell them what you did for her on Mother’s Day!

The Perfectionist Mum

The Perfectionist Mum is all about keeping things neat, tidy, and organised. She's always busy cleaning and making sure everything is in its place and never drops the ball juggling various tasks.

You simply don’t know how she does it all, and seemingly with such ease.

If you have a Perfectionist Mum, then it’s time to let her sit back while she gets a day to relax for a change. Take her out for a pampering and makeover session! She’s going to love the fact that you notice all the work she does on a daily basis.

If you want to make her work at home a little easier, then why not pick up the latest vacuum cleaner or a cabinet for her organisation. You could even get her an entire cleaning kit.

The Bestie Mum

This mum always knows what's up. She knows everything that’s going on not just in your life, but all your friends' lives, too. Chances are, you’ve probably come home a couple of times and found some of your friends at your house telling her about their latest problems!

She’s also always having people over just because of how lovable and relatable she is.

The Bestie Mum is always up for a good time and loves to hang out with her kids. If that’s your mom, then you could take her out for a fun day out.

Go for a massage together, watch a movie, bond over a good hotpot dinner and sing your lungs out together at a karaoke session. Whatever you choose to do, just the fact that you’re doing it together will be more than enough for her.

The Fashionista Mum

The Fashionista Mum is always dressed to impress. She's up to date with the latest fashion trends and loves to look her best. She also most likely both allowed and supported you trying out all the latest fashion trends while you were still in school.

If you have a Fashionista Mum, then why not take her shopping so she can update her wardrobe (that you probably still raid on occasion).

You could even make it a fun outing by picking out outfits for each other or challenging each other to ‘who wore it better’ contest with matching #ootds.

The Zen Mum

The Zen Mum is all about self-improvement, inner peace and tranquillity. She’s probably one of those doing tai chi at the park in the mornings or going to yoga classes, and she’s always reminding you to ground yourself and giving you little trinkets that will complement your energy.

If you have a Zen Mum, then pick up some scented candles, aromatherapy oils, or even get her a beautiful crystal bracelet that can help elevate her energy this Mother’s Day.

We know she would also appreciate a selection of fine teas that she can sip on to wind down after a long day.

End your day out with your mum by taking her out for a sweet treat as a thank you for everything that she does for you on a daily basis. This is also your chance to remind her about what an amazing person she is and score some brownie points for the next time you get into trouble.
