Great Gift Ideas for the Active Mum

With Mother’s Day looming around the corner it’s time to put our thinking caps on and find mum the perfect present she’ll remember!

Chocolates and flowers are so last year… so let’s jump onto the fitness revolution and get her something she’ll really enjoy. The Wesley Dietitians have taken all the guess work out of the equation and compiled a short list of health inspired gift ideas for your mum to enjoy:

Fitbit: Get energised and take charge. Fitbits are a great incentive to get out, get motivated and get fit. The Fitbit tracks your daily steps taken, distance travelled, calories burned, floors climbed and overall activeness.

Sports Clothing: Nothing motivates a person to exercise like new workout gear! Make mum feel great by picking out a super trendy outfit for her next gym session.

Exercise Equipment: This is a handy present for mums who don't have enough time throughout the day to hit the gym. Some new gear for her home workouts such as therabands, weight sets, yoga mat and DVD combos are all great gift ideas.  Rain, hail or shine, mum can fit a workout in with no worries.

Healthy Cook Book: Mum can’t stay active without the right fuel. Why not treat her with a new cook book, or even take her to a cooking class for a fun night out.

Herb Garden Kit: Is your mum a master chef? With this gift, she can jazz up her cooking and make it even healthier with fresh herbs grown right at home. Stop by a home and garden store for a pretty pot, soil, plant food, and herb seeds such as basil, thyme, parsley, oregano, rosemary, and chives. Alternatively, order an all-in-one herb garden kit.

Massage Voucher: Give her the chance to indulge herself and relax with a massage or beauty treatment. These outings are luxuries that most mums don’t have the time to regularly enjoy. After a lifetime of making you feel good when you needed it the most, treating her to a day of relaxation is a great way to make her feel appreciated.
