I bet I’m not different from a lot of moms. Sure, I work at home, and I’m a blogger, but even amongst my non-blogger mommy friends we all have the same run-yourself-ragged schedule.
Working moms, who are trying to squeeze in every moment of quality time they can in the evenings, while also keeping all the balls in the air at work.
Stay at home moms who spend their days wiping noses and sitting through PTA meetings.
Work from home moms who face the questions “what do you with your day?” while trying to set boundaries between where work starts and where it ends.
The one thing we all have in common is that we are SO BUSY. Running around town doing errands, chauffeuring our kids to and from sports and activities, driving carpool and making dinner. Trying to get it all done before our head hits the pillow and morning comes too soon and we have to do it again.
So for mother’s day this year, I wanted to focus on gift ideas that would make life EASIER for the busy moms (which is pretty much every mom.) I found 12 things that I personal have or wish I had, that focus on taking some of the pressure off the lives of busy moms.
Gift Ideas for Busy Moms
There is nothing worse than sitting at a PTA meeting with a dead phone!
Walking over to the coffee shop for lunch and don't want to carry your whole purse? This stick on credit card holder secures a few cards securely on the back of your phone.
Coffee: The life blood of tired moms everywhere.
It is super important to stay hydrated, but plain water isn't very fun to drink. This infuser water bottle gives you naturally infused flavors from real fruit.
Come home to clean floors! Who doesn't need that?
Sitting in the carpool line while your coffee gets cold? No more! Stainless steel tumblers keep drinks hot longer than plastic.
7. Laptop Case
For the mom on the go! Keep your laptop safe even when you throw it into the backseat of the minivan.
Nobody needs more clutter in their purse. Combine two essentials into one portable package!
Want to know exactly just how much running around you did today? Throw on a fitness tracker. I am loving this version in coral.
Admitting it is the first step on the road to recovery. Wear your business with pride!
11. Purse Organizer
Being a mom means a lot of extra 'stuff' to carry around. This purse organizer is a fantastic way to get control of all that clutter.
The ultimate pampering activity. A bubble bath at the end of the day can help relax any mom, no matter how busy!
