It’s no secret that moms by definition usually have a lot on their plates - so if you want to show the hard-working mom in your life how much you appreciate her, a Mother’s Day gift that makes her life easier is just what she needs.
As a mom myself, I of course appreciate a sweet Mother’s Day gift like flowers - but I also love a gift that’s meant to pamper, ease my stress or just plain help me out!
So here’s my edit of gifts that I’d be thrilled to get (hint, hint) - and just about any mom would love, too.

A sound machine for better sleep
Big Red Rooster White Noise Sound Machine
Top review:
"Every mom needs at least one. I personally have two of these and I buy one for every baby shower I go to. The white noise is an accurate sound, it has lullabys, and it has an excellent range of volume. I really like that it has a plug in AND battery option! This makes it ideal for nights when baby is away but can still feel at home. The extra we even put in my girls room because it helps them sleep as well! Invest in this product you will not regret it! Also the price point is amazing for the quality."
With a whopping 22,000 5-star ratings, this sound machine is one of Amazon's most popular. It's great for older folks and new parents with babies, too. As one reviewer said, "I bought one for my mom who suffers from [tinnitus] and she said it is the only thing that has helped her sleep and not have the noise in her head at night. She likes the white noise sound. I got a second one for my son who has sensory needs."

Top review:
"Will never wrap my hair in anything else. Honestly the best hair towel to exist. Perfect length for almost all hair, however my hair is insanely long so I could use an extra inch or two.

Any wine-loving mom would be happy to be gifted her very own personal wine chiller – and it is Oprah-approved as one of her Favorite Things. The genius VoChill keeps your wine cold for over an hour - just keep the cradle, which is magnetically attached to the stem, in the freezer when not in use.

An easy hot air hair styler

"Most important hot tool ever. I am honestly obsessed. I dont normally do my hair and this is completely changing that. Use heat protectant and be mindful where you hold it at the top. Spray a brush (or clean tooth brush) with hairspray to tame flyaways.
