Whether it’s your mother, your mother-in-law, your grandmother or another prominent mother figure, you likely have a few reasons to celebrate the moms in your life. Mother’s Day is in just a few weeks — so if you haven’t started thinking about gifts quite yet, you may want to get a plan in place. Last-minute gift shopping can be stressful, , but luckily, there are multiple retailers that can ship a gift in time for Mother’s Day. If she’s been experimenting with new recipes recently, you may want to consider getting her an all-encompassing cooking appliance. Or maybe she’d like to receive a comfortable pair of shoes for lounging around the house. We also have popular items for the tech lover, the skin care guru and the mom that would prefer a classic bouquet of flowers.
If you’re doing some last-minute Mother’s Day shopping, we compiled a list of gifts that will arrive at your door — or theirs — in time for the holiday, covering various interests and price points. Though each brand should be able to deliver your package on time, double-check the shipping date prior to confirming your purchase. See our top picks for the best last-minute Mother’s Day gifts below.
Best last minute Mother’s Day gifts
1. Apple AirTag
Apple recently announced the launch of the new AirTag during its “Spring Loaded” virtual event, and they start shipping out just in time for Mother’s Day. The tag — which works like the popular Tile— can help your mom keep track of her purse, wallet and other belongings by giving her the precise location of her items whenever she misplaces them. For fashionable moms, the AirTag comes in a special Hermes Key Ring.
2. Philips SmartSleep Alarm Clock
The Philips SmartSleep Alarm Clock is designed to help your mom wake up feeling more refreshed. It begins to light up 30 minutes before a requested wake-up time and mimics the natural sunrise, gradually reaching full brightness. Psychotherapist Lindsey Huttner, LCSW, previously told BETTER that using a sleep tracker, like the one available on the Philips SmartSleep app, is the best cure for sleeplessness.
3. Cocokind Organic Facial Cleansing Oil
For the beauty-loving mom, the Cocokind Facial Cleansing Oil includes coconut, avocado, tea tree and lavender oils that remove dirt and impurities. The brand uses ingredients that are gluten-free, cruelty-free and certified organic — and this oil, included in our fair trade skin care guide, is designed to be a tough makeup remover while being gentle on her face.
4. TOMS Alpargata
These TOMS shoes, one of the best eco-friendly sneakers, are comfortable and versatile for any mom who’s always on the go..

On days when she needs to take her coffee to go, this popular 30-ounce tumbler from Yeti can keep her drink hot “until the last sip,” according to the brand.

6. Slip Silk Pillowcase
Help your mom achieve a better night’s sleep with this silk pillowcase from Slip. It’s crafted with pure silk and boasts a wrinkle-free design.

It comes in over a dozen colors, including Desert Rose, Silver and Dusk.

All of the products are scented with cherry blossom and made with rice milk and jojoba seed oil for softer, more moisturized skin.
12. KeepCup Cork Edition
The KeepCup reusable cup is crafted from durable tempered glass, natural cork and alloy. The thick wall keeps hands safe from burns and the pop-top closure helps to prevent spills on the go.
13. Kindle Paperwhite
The Kindle Paperwhite is a good gift option for any mom who’s a bookworm. It’s water-resistant and glare-free, plus it has a long-lasting battery and a 300-pixel-per-inch resolution. “I can read whatever I want, wherever and whenever I please,” contributor Kirsten Akens said. “With a few taps, I can increase or decrease font sizes, line spacing and page margins. I can select different font styles — from serifed options to sans and back again, depending on my mood.”
14. Meural
The Meural Smart Art Frame allows your mom to personalize the photo canvas with her own pictures or curated paintings, schedule display times and easily adjust settings on its 1080p HD display.
