To remedy your potential lack of planning, we’ve compiled a list of viable, no-advance-planning-needed options and outdoor adventures.

Gifts not your thing? Our list of D.C. Mother’s Day activities should also be quite handy.

Not a mother? Mom not nearby? Don’t worry about it. Anna Jarvis, the creator of Mother’s Day, wasn’t a mother herself. The day is for anyone that is a mother or was birthed by a mother. So that’s most everyone ever.

Make this Mother’s Day a day full of experiences she wont forget!
