Mothers Day Decorations
The earliest Mother's Day celebrations can be traced back to the spring celebrations of ancient Greece in honor of Rhea, the Mother of the Gods. During the 1600's, England celebrated a day called "Mothering Sunday." Celebrated on the 4th Sunday of Lent (the 40 day period leading up to Easter), "Mothering Sunday" honored the mothers of England. It began as a day when apprentices and servants could return home for the day to visit their mothers. They often brought a gift with them, often a "mothering cake," a fruit-filled pastry known as simnels. Furmety, a sweetened boiled cereal dish, was often served at the family dinner during Mothering Sunday celebrations. By the 19th century, the holiday had almost completely died out. The earliest American Mothers' Day (or Mothers' Work Day) was initiated around 1858 in West Virginia. Anna Reeves Jarvis, a local teacher and church member, wanted to work for improved sanitation in her town. During the Civil War, she extended the purpose of Mothers' Work Days to work for better sanitary conditions for both sides in the conflict. After the Civil War, Reeves worked for a reconciliation between people who had supported the two sides in the war. Today we give gifts and flowers to honor our mothers. Traditionally family members have a breakfast or a dinner together on Mother's Day. Some families serve Mom breakfast in bed and pamper her on this special day. Make sure to give Mom a gift she can use all year long on like a big kiss or a personalized picture frame. Mother's Day party supplies like paper plates, napkins, and cups are a perfect way to complete a Mother's Day Party Theme. Party decorations using like glow jewelry, stickers. Mother's Day loot bags tucked into baskets can be a centerpiece and can double as party prizes. Party favors like jewelry, glow whistles, hats, masks, party-poppers and mugs will add the special touches to a Mother's Day Party Theme.
