Mother’s Day Ideas for the Ladies in Your Life

Posts on May 5, 2018 in Activities

Still racking your brain to come up with plans for the special woman in your life? Choose from this list of activities that appeal to the thrill-seeking mom just as much as the one that would much rather relax with a drink in hand. Henry County, Georgia has a variety of Mother’s Day ideas you can use.

 

Spa Day at The HoneyComb Cottage

Treat her to a day of pampering with a gift certificate for The HoneyComb Cottage. With services ranging from facials to the signature honey massage, mom can spend time getting well-deserved rest and relaxation. The spa has two Henry County, Georgia locations, with The HoneyComb Cottage located in Locust Grove and The HoneyComb Cottage Too in Hampton.

 

Make Art at The Creativity Café

From canvas painting to jewelry making, The Creativity Café in McDonough, Georgia has all the tools you and the ladies in your life need for artistic expression. The art studio is open seven days a week, can accommodate planned group outings, and welcomes drop-in canvas painting. Have fun putting brush to canvas, clay and more.

 

 A Guided Walk on the Wild Side Tour at Noah’s Ark

Schedule a Walk on the Wild Side (WOW) Tour for her. Noah’s Ark Animal Sanctuary is the 250-acre home to more than 100 different species of rescued and rehabilitated animals. If the mom in your life is an animal lover, she’ll definitely connect with the residents of this Locust Grove, Georgia sanctuary. Sounds like the perfect gift? Register for a tour!

 

Helicopter Rides in Hampton, GA

The Army Aviation Heritage Foundation offers you the chance to be a part of history with flights in Vietnam-era aircraft, including UH-1H Huey and A1-1F Cobra helicopters. Whether the mom in your life is a veteran, a fan of aviation, or simply loves a good adventure, a visit to the Army Aviation Heritage Foundation (AAHF) is a good pick. The next scheduled ride  is Saturday, May 26. Contact the AAHF to purchase a gift certificate at (770) 897-0444.

 

 A Day of Shopping at Tanger Outlets

The mom in your life could use a break. A day of shopping at Tanger Outlets in Locust Grove may be just what she needs. Take her on a shopping spree and let her spend time indulging in a variety of fashion and goods. Special bonus: all month long, teachers and nurses get a free coupon book from Shoppers Services when they present their work ID. That’s even more of a reason to celebrate!

 

Guided Hike or ZZZs in the Trees at Panola Mountain

If the mom in your life is a nature lover, a morning hike at Panola Mountain State Park may be the perfect gift for her. Not only is this an inexpensive activity, it is a healthy and fun way to bond with your loved ones. This guided tour covers three miles and features an up-close look at the ecology of the area. If mom is up for some adventure, take her tree climbing during ZZZs in the Trees on May 12. When night falls, you’ll sleep under the stars with a view like no other before waking up on Mother’s Day in the canopy of a tree.

 

 

Get Out and Enjoy the Weekend

You’ve got to applaud the women who raise kids, work hard and somehow stay sane while balancing the random things that life throws their way. We hope you find one of these Henry County, Georgia weekend activities are the perfect treat for the woman in your life.
