Planning the Perfect Mother's Day in Maple Grove

Mother's Day gifts: A hand-painted mug, teapot and measuring spoons from Color Me Mine.
Take Mother’s Day one step at a time.

This year, make a date with your grandma, mother, mother-in-law, a special friend, yourself and the kids for a Mother’s Day experience the entire family will remember for years to come. We suggest starting at one of the many bright and beautiful parks throughout Maple Grove. Try the Maple Grove Arboretum - Angel of Hope Garden, which is family friendly with walking paths, lush foliage, picnic tables, waterfalls and wildlife.

Make It
Color Me Mine at The Shoppes at Arbor Lakes is the perfect canvas for creativity. Decorate a vase, a platter or whatever you choose. You can even make gifts for each other. Let mom pick out the pottery, and you cover it with your own personal art and message.

Choose It
How about picking out gifts that keep on giving? Consider blooming plants and hanging greenery and flower baskets. The whole family can tour Lynde Greenhouse and Nursery. Check out the colorful varieties, and let mom pick out her favorites to hang on the deck or plant in a pot.

Stretch It
Yoga can be a great option for everyone in your group. Heat Yoga Studio offers classes for all ages and experience levels. Whether you’re looking for a good sweat, deep stretch or mental recovery, the options are endless. Treat mom to a class then buy her a membership as a gift.

Dish It
Instead of ending the day with dinner out, how about making dinner together? At Let’s Dish at The Shoppes at Arbor Lakes, your entire group can prep and prepare meals to eat that night or make enough meals for Sunday night dinners together for the next four months. End your Mother’s Day adventure at home with Caesar crusted chicken with toasted Parmesan potatoes and a decadent molten chocolate cake

Now, that’s the perfect ending to an unforgettable Mother’s Day experience together.
