With Mother’s Day right around the corner, many people are trying to figure out what to buy for the foodie mom that has every gadget and gizmo out there or, perhaps an aging mom who tells you not to buy them anything? We have all struggled to find the perfect Mother’s Day gift, so hopefully these few ‘out of the box’ healthy living gift suggestions will inspire you to find the perfect (and healthy) gift for your mom, grandmother or mother figure this year!

Go Vintage

For the mom or grandma who has every gadget and gizmo out there, gift a vintage looking apron and matching cookbook. A stylish addition to any kitchen, a vintage-inspired apron that features lace, flowers and a ruffled hem can offer a truly distinctive touch. And matching vintage cookbooks are the perfect companion for those ladies who love to cook: look for ’50s-era editions of classics or search cookbooks filled with homemade gift ideas. Add a gift card to mom’s favorite natural foods store or produce market and wrap it up in butcher’s paper and kitchen twine.

Gift Healthy, Prepared Meals

A gift certificate for healthy, prepared meals like those at Seattle Sutton’s Healthy Eating are the perfect gift for those who need to take a time out from thinking and preparing healthy meals. It’s also a treat for mom to have meals made for her for a change! Perhaps your mom (or grandmother) has been recently discharged from the hospital, or there’s a new mom in your life who wants to eat healthy and get back in shape post baby? Everyone can benefit from freshly prepared, healthy, and delicious meals, so give the gift of healthy eating to a mother figure this Mother’s Day.

Tea and Teapot

High quality loose tea is a real treat for tea connoisseurs and those who enjoy a fine cup of tea on occasion. Plus, tea comes with many health benefits. From green tea to hibiscus, from white tea to chamomile, teas are chock full of flavor and other healthy goodies. Studies have found that some teas may help with cancer, heart disease and diabetes; encourage weight loss; lower cholesterol; and bring about mental alertness. And what better item to pair with than a beautiful teapot? Even if the gift better has one already, one can never have too many heating vessels.

Nobody likes to gift give fail and it’s especially true when it comes to your dear mom. Hopefully these healthy living ideas got your creative juices flowing and will make your Mother’s Day gift giving a little easier this year!

Treat your Mom to the perfect Mother's Day gift this year with a gift certificate or meal plan from Seattle Sutton's Healthy Eating. A Seattle Sutton Mother's Day gift is a great way to give your Mother something she will love while also helping her live a healthier lifestyle.
