Gifts for outdoor mums

Whether you are buying a gift for a gardener, hiker, paddler boarder or surfer, there’s something here to help them enjoy the great outdoors and chill out after their excursions.

Relaxing bath salts

An indulgent soak is just what every mum needs after a day of activity in the great outdoors. A good bag of bath salts can also be used as a detoxifying body scrub to relieve tired muscles after a long walk.

Personally I love the idea of running a hot bath and letting these magic minerals do their thing while I relax with a glass of bubbly.

A garden hammock

Give the gift of quality relaxation time with a garden hammock. I can almost feel the sunshine on my face and sense the land of nod beckoning.

An outdoor hammock is the ultimate way for kids to show their mum they deserve to relax…even if it is only for one day before they take over this outdoor retreat. Let’s face it, that’s exactly what would happen!

Changing robe

As a paddle boarder this one is on my Christmas wish list for sure!

If you are looking for the perfect gift for a mum who loves water sports, wild swimming or taking part in running events then this is a practical present that they will love.

Cool picnic basket

Bear with me on this one – it doesn’t sound that exciting but it’s super practical and will get a lot of use.

I love having picnics when we are out for the day but hate it when our sandwiches warm up while we’re getting from A to B.

A cool bag that doubles as a picnic basket is the perfect solution; keeping everything fresh as well as being super attractive.

Wonderful wellies

I’m a sucker for pretty wellies! I know they’re going to get covered in mud but what better to brighten your mood on a rainy day than with something pretty on your feet?

These are a gift for outdoor mums that will get use all year round.

Buy women’s wellington boots*

Gardening gloves

If you’re buying for a green-fingered mum help save her hands from the hard work of pulling weeds and planting seed with a new pair of gardening gloves.
