As a mama and a Hinsdale photographer, Mother’s Day is one of the best days of the year. I love getting to spend uninterrupted quality time with the most important people in my life. Of course, every mama out there should celebrate and be celebrated on this special day. I wanted to provide a list of fun activities to do in Chicago and the suburbs to spend this Mother’s Day having an amazing day.
1. Mother’s Day Brunch
This is, of course, a very popular option, but for good reason! There are incredible restaurants in the city and the suburbs to enjoy a beautiful celebration with family and friends to ring in this special holiday. Some of the best family-friendly restaurants:
Egg Harbor Cafe, Hinsdale
Garden Berry Cafe, Hinsdale
Hutch American Bistro, Chicago
Crosby’s Kitchen, Chicago
Blind Faith Cafe, Evanston
2. Family Picnic
The weather has been turning lately, and what a better way to spend the day with your littles than playing and snacking outside? There are so many amazing parks to visit in the suburbs and the city. Plus, outdoor fun is always a great way to get some timeless family photos that you can turn into memories for years to come. Maybe a Mother’s Day picnic can become your yearly tradition.
3. A Spa Day
This doesn’t have to be on actual Mother’s Day itself, but a trip to get a pedicure or a massage to start your day off right would be amazing. As mama’s, we do everything we can to make sure everyone else in our lives, our partners and our kids, have all they need all the time. Oftentimes, we forget to take care of ourselves. It’s so special to have a day dedicated to us and all we do for our loved ones. If you’re feeling creative, you could do an at-home spa day with your littles! Some sheet masks and nail polish will always do just the trick.
No matter what you do to celebrate, I hope you have the most incredible Mother’s Day. You deserve to feel all the love and joy among you and the family that you’ve created. Happy Mother’s Day!
