Celebrating Mother's Day in Singapore

Different countries have their own unique ways of celebrating Mother’s Day. In Japan, for instance, mothers are gifted red or pink carnations, and children often help with household chores to relieve their mom’s burden. Mexico also regards this occasion with great importance, with children performing for their mothers and mariachi bands playing traditional tunes to commemorate the special day.

In Singapore, celebrations are often intimate and typically include heartfelt cards, thoughtful gifts, and a special meal together as a family. For Mother’s Day 2024, make the special occasion one for mom to remember by planning a unique celebration for her.
