Fun Ways to Celebrate Mother's Day
30 April 2022Mother's Day is a worldwide celebration of motherhood and all the mothers that are celebrated in a variety of ways. This year, Mother's Day lands on May 8!
Mother's Day can be traced from "Mothering Sunday," an early Christian holiday and special church services celebrating motherhood that serves as the best contemporary antecedent for presenting mothers and Mother's Day, and dates back to the ancient times Greek and Roman celebrations of mother deities Rhea and Cybele.
If you live in the United Kingdom or other European countries that celebrate Lent's fourth Sunday, you're likely familiar with the practice of returning to your "mother church" (the main church in your neighborhood) to participate in an extra-special service on this day.
As years passed by, children would give flowers and other symbols of gratitude to their moms as the Mothering Sunday ritual evolved into a more secular one until in the 1930s and 1940s, when the Mother's Day International Association and the first Mother's Day began to celebrate every second Sunday of May and merged with this ritual that gradually declined its prominence.
Although other nations, such as Russia celebrate Mother's Day on International Women’s Day on March 8.
