Saying that 2020 was a hard year is probably an understatement. With social restrictions and precautions in place, many of us have found our sense of freedom being stifled – and that goes the same for Mum. Fact is, she probably had a tough time not being able to do a lot of the things she enjoys doing.
And after all of her sacrifices and unconditional love she has shown to you, why not do something special this 2021 Mother’s Day and make her feel pampered and loved.
If you want to go beyond a simple Mother’s Day gift or card this year, here are some ways you can spoil Mum this Mother’s Day.
Bring Mum out to a Mother’s Day Buffet Breakfast
When you think of buffet breakfasts, they’re often associated with being spoiled at a hotel, on a holiday or similar.
For this Mother’s Day, why not make Mum feel special without having to actually do the whole shindig of staying at a hotel to enjoy a wholehearted buffet breakfast?
The Isa Hotel is hosting a fantastic Mother’s Day Buffet Breakfast at the renowned Rodeo Bar & Grill Steakhouse on Sunday 9 May 2021.
Opening as early as 6am, and finishing up at 11am, this all-you-can-eat buffet breakfast promises a seemingly endless stream of delicious breakfast goodies that you can fill up plate after plate. From fluffy, decadent pancakes to crispy bacon, Mum will even get the chance to enjoy her favourite caffeinated beverages such as tea and coffee, to fuel up for the day.
Treat Mum like the Queen she is, and indulge in a great buffet breakfast to give you both the energy to power through the rest of your Mother's Day activities.
Numbers are limited for this event, so be sure to book your tickets by calling (07) 4749 8888.
A Pamper Package from The Skin Coaches
Love and affection blend seamlessly with pampering and spoiling. Make Mum feel truly taken care of with a pamper package from The Skin Coaches, who specialise in beauty and skincare.
And we’ve found the perfect package for her! The Relax Facial, priced at $152, will offer her the ultimate relaxation facial tailored to her skin type. Not only will she leave feeling rejuvenated with pure bliss, she’ll also walk away with the great results of a high quality facial by beauty experts that could leave her looking younger and more vibrant than ever.
A perfect gift for that special woman in your life.
Picnic at the Mount Isa Lookout
Instead of staying indoors for lunch, why not head to the great outdoors for a picnic instead?
The Mount Isa Lookout offers fantastic 360 degree panoramic views that will simply astound you and Mum. In fact, this vantage point will give you the best sight of the town of Mount Isa and all that surrounds it in Outback Queensland.
It’s easy to set the scene by laying out a scrumptious picnic spread with fresh fruit, cheese, crackers, bread, some delicate desserts, and a bottle of Mum’s favourite drink. Don’t forget to grab freshly cut flowers to lend beauty to the setting, elegant pillows to make everyone feel comfy, and the finer details of tableware to add to the luxury.
To make life easier, save yourself the trouble of setting up a beautiful picnic for Mum this year and leave the work to the professionals.
With all-inclusive packages that also include a complete set up and pack down, the Little T Creative runs a picnic service in Mount Isa. From a Boho Sundowners Package that includes a complete set up, pack down at your location choice followed with platter and drinks, to the ultimate girl’s night package which includes a full set up of luxurious cushions, throws, a picnic rug, a picnic table, vases and flower arrangements, savoury platter boards, drinks cart, buckets of ice, and so much more.
If you’re looking to spoil Mum on a budget, you could always go for the picnic hamper which is a picnic basket fully prepared for you, including a picnic rug, throw blanket, wine bucket (but bring your own ice), wine glasses, lighting, a female graze box, a cheese platter and knives, and napkins.
