Unique Mother’s Day Activities in Sydney
Spend Mother’ Day in Sydney like never before with some exciting activities– harbour cruise, a backyard barbie and more!

 

Although one day is not nearly enough to honour one of the most important people in your life, it is still an excellent opportunity to express your appreciation and map out quality time with the person who raised you. So if you're looking to go even further beyond the usual card or gifts, we might have something in store for you. From cooking up a barbie in your own backyard to dining out at a fancy cruise, you can celebrate in more than one way in the harbour city of Australia.

 

Check out the Mother’s Day Cruise in Sydney Harbour

 

If there’s ever a thing called the perfect gift, this is it. Most special occasions are marked by dining out at a fancy restaurant with the closest people in our life and Mother’s Day is one such special occasion. If you're on the hunt for the best dining spots to hit with the entire squad, the ideal option would be the Mother’s Day Harbour Cruise. It is one of the best alternatives to regular dining, offering unparalleled views of the harbour along with scrumptious food and drinks. Watch the harbour go by from the comfort of your cruise including views of the legendary landmarks the Opera House, Harbour Bridge, Luna Park and many more. Mums will definitely love this unique experience and to take it even further you can purchase drinks and other beverages from the fully licensed bar.

 

Give a helping hand

 

Mums also have to-do lists, it can be cleaning the coffee maker, running an errand or fixing a broken tap. One of the most important things you can do on this special day is to take her time away from responsibilities. Moms are industrious but they’re human too. They crave time off from responsibilities or may want nothing more than a helping hand. This is your ultimate opportunity to lend a helping hand. There might be a number of things she might be putting off, like cleaning the cobwebs on the corner, assembling old furniture and the like, so use the day as an opportunity to help her cross these things off her to-do list.



Watch a Mother-Daughter movie together     

 

You have obviously spent a lot of time parked in front of the TV, so why not for a change do it alongside your mum? A mother-daughter movie is an ideal option if you're planning to stay indoors for Mother’s Day. And if you want to go that extra mile, mail her in advance a pair of cosy socks, along with a classic movie CD– even better if the movie displays mother-daughter elements like She’s The Man. After the feature, light a candle,  put on some nostalgic music and surprise mum with a warm meal!

 

Surprise her with a family recipe

 

Another idea for you to try if you prefer to stay indoors. Chances are that you got your first cooking lesson from your mum and now it is time to return the favour. Each family has a special/secret recipe that gets passed down from through generations. Contact your aunt or grandmother and teach your mum a secret recipe she doesn't  know about. Celebrate Mother’s Day by teaching her the secrets behind Aunt maggy’s lemon cake or grandmother’s renowned apple pie.

 

Cook up a Backyard BBQ

 

There’s nothing more “family” in Australia than a barbecue, even better if it's in your own backyard. If your mum is more of a “beer and barbecue” person instead of “tea and biscuits”, fire up the grill and celebrate the most important person in your life with a low-key BBQ with your closest companions. Even if you're away from your mu you can coordinate with dad or someone else on creating a duel menu which you can enjoy “together”.
