Mother’s Day days out to show mum you care

For just £35, you and your mum can enjoy an afternoon tea in one of over a hundred locations. This is a great option if you can't book anything for the day itself but still want to give your mum something to look forward to. The voucher is valid for 24 months so you've got plenty of time to book, and can be used at cafes and restaurants such as Marco Pierre White and Patisserie Valerie.

Treat your mum (and her plus one!) to high end dining at its best with a three-course lunch at Gordon Ramsay's Savoy Grill in the luxurious surrounds of The Savoy. Two of you can enjoy a delicious three-course lunch from the set menu in the glamorous 1920s-inspired restaurant. The voucher is valid from Monday to Friday.

For a Mother's Day day out idea with a twist, how about a pottery class? She'll be able to learn a new skill, have fun, and hopefully create something worth bringing home to remind her of the day. Whether she's a budding potter or new to the wheel, a pottery lesson will be a hands-on experience that you can do together.

If your mum loves the theatre, what about this experience where she and a plus one can enjoy one of the city’s finest performances with a choice of TINA: The Tina Turner Musical, The Mousetrap, or Matilda the Musical. With a two-course pre-show meal in a local restaurant before taking her seat, she'll feel truly spoilt.

With a choice of classes at The Jamie Oliver Cookery School in London, it’s up to mum which cuisine she'd like to master in this two hour session for one person. Everything from North Indian Thali and Vietnamese Street Food to Pasta Master and Indonesian Rendang classes are on offer. Expert chefs guide mum every step of the way through the two-hour session, and at the end of the session she'll be able to enjoy the fruits of her labour as well as leaving with new skills.

Dining on delicious food and sipping a cocktail in the lush surrounds of the Fortnum & Mason Bar and Restaurant at the Royal Exchange is likely to make mum feel particularly pampered. With three courses and a cocktail for two people, it's a real treat for mum and her lucky companion.

Mother&Baby's Digital Writer, Rebecca, was given this gift for a significant birthday and went along with a friend. She said "the food was wonderful, and each of the three courses was a real treat. The restaurant has a real buzz to it and does feel special. We went at Christmas and while it was beautiful, it was a little cold. I imagine it would have been perfect in the warmer months!"

One for those who love adventure but are not quite brave enough to face the heights in a plane, this thrill-seeking gift will see your mum enjoy the feeling of weightlessness and all the fun involved. She can enjoy two exhilarating flights while she's suspended in mid-air and get the sensation of skydiving, without having to leap out of a plane.

This Oxfordshire winery tour and tasting experience is an enjoyable way to go 'behind the scenes' at a charming English winery and get a real sense of the wine production process, from grape to glass.

Got a chocoholic in your life? Treat them to this experience where host Igor will guide you through the magical transformation of creating an amazing chocolate bar from a cocoa bean. Travel through time by tasting chocolate at all the key turning points on its evolution from the Aztec’s raw cocoa to the sophistication of the Courts of Europe. You'll also take three of your own unique bars home to enjoy. Yum!

Who wouldn't want to spend two hours having a personal encounter with a pack of trained Golden Retrievers? During the experience, you'll have plenty of dog-filled fun; from doggy cuddles to playing fetch.
