Mother’s day gift ideas for the travelling mum

Mother’s day is around the corner and what says “I love you” more than some new RV and caravanning gear for your travel loving mum? She may have all the gear and the idea, so what’s left on the list to buy the woman who has it all? Here are some unique ideas you might not have thought of.

Travel journal

If your mum loves to draw, write down memories, create lists or express herself through words in a journal, then a travel journal could be a beautiful option. There are some creative journals out there that include prompts that allow you to plan your holiday step by step. If your mum’s an organisation queen, the Journal Trip Planning journal from Kikki K is a great choice. It includes tabbed sections to allow mum to record her wish list, packing lists, important contacts, general notes and more. To make it even more personal, they offer monogramming services so you can monogram her initials.

Personalised doormat

Doormats are a necessity when it comes to camping. Especially if you’re coming and going from the beach and find you’re always dragging sand inside the caravan with you. Why not give mum a gift that is both practical and sentimental and order her a personalised doormat? Choose from a range of designs and styles, and customise it with your family name. A gift that’ll last many camping trips to come, a personalised doormat is an awesome addition to a campsite and a sentimental gift mum will cherish.

Travel safe wine

Does mum love a glass or two while relaxing under the awning of the caravan? Wine, and more specifically thin stemmed wine glasses, can be difficult to bring along on a caravanning trip. As you’d be aware, when towing a caravan you need to ensure that all items within it are strapped down or secured. So you often find you’re drinking wine out of mugs or plastic camping cups as a result of not being able to pack wine glasses. Greenskin Wines have found a way around this issue and have created glassless wine that not only erases the issue of shattered glass, but also allows you to reseal so you won’t waste a drop. The revolutionary pouch allows your wine to chill far quicker than a bottle of wine typically would and is certified BPA free.

Whether it’s a pack of Chardonnay or Rose, Greenskin Wine have a range of outdoor friendly wines that would be the perfect gift for mum.

Outdoor drinkware

With thermo bottles, tumblers and mugs on offer, Dometic drinkware are a robust option for drinkware that are ideal for the outdoor space and perfect for our outdoor-loving mums. Whether it’s keeping a drink cold during a hot summer’s day at the campsite or maintaining heat in your warm tea, the reusable drinkware from Dometic are an incredible gift for mum. She’ll be able to reuse and refill these leak-proof, dishwasher safe and BPA free drinking options that will last for many adventures to come.

A comfy camp chair

Whether it’s reading a book, enjoying a tea or simply sitting and watching the campfire, a comfy camp chair is always going to be the perfect companion. Give mum the gift of comfort with a new camp chair that she can take away for camping and RV-based adventures alike. Padded for extra cushioning, the Spinifex Comfort Line Moon Chair is a comfy option allowing you to curl up for as long as you choose. Many of us have gone down in a camp chair before, so understandably there are some trust issues! However, the strengthened steel frame holds up to a 120kg load, allowing it to stay firm and sturdy while supporting your body weight. It also features a foldable design which is ideal for storing and transporting.

One or more of these awesome gifts and we’re sure mum will be feeling the love! Or if all else fails, we reckon a new caravanning holiday to mark in her calendar and look forward to would be perfect.
