The category of “mom” encompasses a tremendous amount of variety. There are moms like me, who are coming out of that first-year haze of constant diaper changing and no sleep and are slowly reclaiming their hobbies and free time. There are moms with multiple kids, who are coping with the needs of teenagers and three-nagers simultaneously (those mothers are stronger than I will ever be). And finally, there are moms—possibly your mom—who might have an empty nest but are still fielding your calls about how long to cook a chicken.
This guide has something for all of them, from tools that make motherhood a little easier to things she can enjoy when the kids are finally in bed. Looking for something else to delight your favorite mom? We have guides on everything from breast pumps and strollers to the best baby gear for that first year.
Updated April 2024: We’ve added several new gifts to this guide, including the Calpak Clear Cosmetic Cases, Zoe Tour Stroller, Owala 40oz Tumbler, and Prana Heavana Hot Spell Leggings.
