The Best
Gift To Give On Mother's Day
The Origin of Mother’s Day and the Story Behind It
A mother is a warm embrace, endless patience, and the one who puts our comfort before her own. She embodies boundless giving and unconditional love.
As the poet Hafiz Ibrahim wrote:
“A mother is a school: if you prepare her well, you prepare a nation of noble character.”
Mother’s Day originated in the United States, where activist Anna Jarvis campaigned in the early 20th century to establish a national day to honor mothers. Since then, the celebration has spread worldwide and become a special occasion for children to express their gratitude and love. Yet despite its global nature, the dates and traditions vary greatly from one country to another.
Mother’s Day Around the World
• In Spain: celebrated every year on the first Sunday of May.
• In Germany: Muttertag is celebrated on the second Sunday of May. On this day, mothers rest while children make them a hearty breakfast and give them flowers.
• In the United Kingdom: known as Mothering Sunday, it falls on the fourth Sunday of Lent, usually in mid-March.
• In Japan: called Haha no hi, it is celebrated on the second Sunday of May, like in the U.S. Children give gifts along with red carnations, which symbolize mutual love and gratitude.

Just as we care for and honor our mothers, we must also preserve our authentic Moroccan heritage, for it is a great legacy worth protecting and celebrating.
