Ideas For Celebrating Mother's Day During Quarantine

With many states still under shelter in place warnings and quarantines due to COVID-19, Mother’s Day is going to feel much different in 2020.

Taking extra precautions is necessary these days, but there are still plenty of ways to show mom how much she means to you.

Instead of taking mom out to eat at Bob Evans, you can have comforting favorites from Down on the Farm delivered directly to her home when you order online.

We’ve thought of a few more ways you can make mom feel special this Mother’s Day when you can’t be there in person.

Mother’s Day Meal Delivered

The traditional Mother’s Day brunch or dinner out is not an option this year, so bring the meal to mom.

You can have family-size portions of Bob Evans breakfast favorites delivered so she has extras to brunch on the day after Mother’s Day.

For dinner, you can order special hot Mother’s Day meals delivered or, for the first time, get a Farmhouse Feast sent to her house on Mother's Day weekend. Feasts are packed cold and just need to be heated up before you eat. With enough to feed four, it’s just enough for a stay at home celebration.

Video Call Your Mom

You should always take time to check in with your mom on the phone. It’s even better if you take moment to video chat with her and catch up. With several weeks of practice at social distancing, jumping on FaceTime or even a Zoom call with other family members should take even less coaching than usual. Don’t forget to give grandma a call too!

Art from the Heart

Having flowers delivered is going to be a very popular option for many on Mother’s Day. Another way to show your love would be sending a homemade card or artwork from the grandkids. Get out the paints and some long sheet’s of paper for a custom door decoration mom can enjoy every time she walks outside.

Drive-By Celebration

Car parades have been a popular option for birthday parties during quarantine and there’s no reason you can’t do the same for mom. Gather all the family, decorate your cars and make some noise so the neighborhood can hear how much you appreciate all mom’s done.

Safe Hugs

It’s extremely hard not to give mom a hug on Mother’s Day, but it doesn’t mean you can’t see her in person. Take a moment to say hi through the glass door or a window. It may be a little bittersweet, but it’s great reminder that you can take care of mom like she’s always taken care of you.

Making the most of Mother’s Day means making memories any way you can. It’s all about showing your love and appreciation for the important women in your life. Spend more time making this time special and let Bob Evans take care of making special homestyle Mother’s Day meals.
