Still scrambling for the perfect Mother’s Day gift? Don’t worry, you’ve got a few weeks left (Mother’s Day is Sunday, May 11th). But for all the guys out there who haven’t started planning yet, Dom Martin, a content creator and mom, is here to help you avoid the classic mistakes with her no-nonsense guide to what moms actually want.
In her TikTok video, Dom breaks it down with a simple slideshow:
The Do’s:
-
Plan ahead – Last-minute shopping? Not a good look.
-
Personalize it – Think about what mom actually wants, not just something generic.
-
Pay attention – You should know her well enough to know what she likes!
The Don’ts:
-
Avoid “mama” gifts – If she wanted something with “mama” on it, she probably already got it.
-
No cleaning-related gifts – Unless you want to sound like you’re handing her a “Cinderella” contract.
-
Steer clear of Amazon “Mother’s Day gifts” – Trust us, she doesn’t want whatever’s on that list.
-
Don’t guess – You know her better than anyone. Use that knowledge!
So, take Dom’s advice and make sure you don’t drop the ball this year.
@momwithdom This is your friendly reminder that Mother’s Day is not a drill. Step away from the vacuum cleaner aisle and head directly to Part 2 for the gift guide she actually deserves 💐👀 #DoBetter #MothersDayHelp #MothersDay2025 #GiftsForMoms #MomsofTikTok #GiftGuide #creatorsearchinsights
