Mother’s Day is all about showing Mom just how much she means to you, whether it’s with a relaxing day at home, an outdoor adventure, or a sunset dinner with a chilled drink in hand. From fun, free Mother's Day activities to unforgettable experiences, we’ve rounded up the best ways to make this Mother’s Day one to remember. Plus, we’ve got some perfect Toadfish gear to help make the day as smooth as a cool cocktail (or two).

At-Home Mother's Day Activities that Mom is Guaranteed to Love

Coastal Family Meal

  • If you’re looking to keep things simple yet special, cook up a coastal-themed feast at home. Whether it's shrimp boil, grilled fish tacos, or a seafood pasta, you’ll be savoring the flavors of the ocean without leaving the kitchen. Set the mood with some coastal décor—seashells, candles, and maybe a few sprigs of rosemary—and if you really want to go all out, pair your meal with a drink from our Coastal Mother's Day Cocktails guide. For cooking up these dishes, the Coastal Kitchen Collection has all the essentials you need, including our durable Ultimate Spatula, perfect for flipping, stirring, and serving.

Breakfast in Bed

  • Surprise Mom with breakfast in bed, but with a coastal twist. Fresh fruit, pastries, and a refreshing mimosa (or sparkling juice) should do the trick. If you really want to elevate the experience, set the tray with seashells or flowers—simple, but it’ll make her feel like a queen. A Toadfish Non-Tipping Wine Tumbler is the perfect vessel for those mimosas or sparkling juice, keeping everything chilled and spill-free as she sips away in style.

Neighborhood Coastal Walk

  • If you're lucky enough to live near the coast, take Mom on a leisurely walk around your neighborhood or along the shore. If you’re landlocked, a simple stroll around the block works just as well. The key here is spending quality time together in a relaxed, no-pressure setting. Bring along the Toadfish Universal Can Cooler to keep your favorite beverages ice-cold and easily accessible as you take in the fresh air and natural beauty.

Perfect Cost-Free Activities to Do on Mother’s Day

Beach Picnic & Shell Collecting

  • Nothing beats a simple, relaxing beach day. Pack up a picnic with Mom’s favorite snacks, bring a cozy blanket, and head to the beach for some sun, surf, and shell collecting. Whether you’re basking in the sunshine or just chatting, it’s the perfect way to spend the afternoon. Our Waterproof Tote + Sling is the perfect carry-all for your beach essentials, from snacks to towels, and even your chilled beverages.

Coastal Park Walk or Hike

  • If you have a coastal park nearby, take a scenic walk or hike. Breathe in the salty air, enjoy the views, and get some steps in while you chat with Mom. A Toadfish Waterproof Sling is the perfect crossbody bag for carrying all your necessities without getting weighed down, so you can enjoy the beauty of the outdoors without fuss.

Sunset Watching at a Scenic Spot

  • Find a spot with a killer view of the ocean or bay and settle in for a sunset watch. It's one of the easiest yet most beautiful ways to spend quality time with Mom. Pack a chilled bottle of wine, and to keep everything perfectly cold for this unforgettable moment, bring along a Toadfish Wine Chiller + Tumblers Gift Set. Whether you’re sipping from the tumbler or pouring from the chiller, it’s a sunset experience that will be just as smooth as the view.

Coastal Town Shopping & Lunch

  • Explore a charming coastal town, visit local boutiques, and check out a few art galleries. Afterward, grab lunch at a seafood spot with an ocean view. It’s a lovely way to spend the day together, with lots of chances to find something special. And of course, a Toadfish Waterproof Sling makes the perfect companion for a day out—small, stylish, and just the right size for your essentials.

Coastal Winery or Brewery Visit

  • Treat Mom to a visit to a coastal winery or brewery. Many spots offer tastings and have breathtaking views, so you can sip and soak in the sights. Whether it's a glass of crisp white wine or a refreshing local brew, make sure you bring a Toadfish Stowaway Cooler to keep your beverages chilled throughout the day.

Sunset Dinner Cruise

  • Looking for something a little more romantic? A sunset dinner cruise is the perfect way to celebrate Mom’s special day. With delicious food and incredible views of the coastline, this is an experience she won’t forget. Make it extra special by bringing along a Toadfish Rocks Tumbler Gift Set, ensuring that every sip is as smooth as the sunset.
