What is the history behind Mother’s Day?

Motherhood has been around since before human civilization as we know it. Celebrating Mother’s Day may sound like a new idea to some, but it is in fact quite ancient. Mother’s Day is a day in which we celebrate the great contributions mothers have made to our lives. Mothers are the most important people in a child’s life, and they deserve to be celebrated.

Why is it called Mother’s Day?

Anna Jarvis successfully started Mother’s Day after her mother, Unleaves Jarvis, died in 1905. Jarvis states that her Mother’s Day must include a “single possessive” so that all families, not all mothers, can honour the mother. Jarvis held her first official Mother’s Day celebration in May 1908. The owner of the

A Philadelphia department store, named John Wanamaker, sponsored this cause. That same month, thousands of people attended a Mother’s Day event at one of Wanamaker’s stores.

Jarvis immediately called for Mother’s Day to be a national holiday and encouraged prominent Americans to participate in the effort.

By 1912, many states, cities and churches made Mother’s Day an annual event. Jarvis also established the Mother’s Day International Association. President Wilson established the second Sunday in May as Mother’s Day in 1914. Hallmark began selling Mother’s Day cards in the early 1920s.

When will Mother’s Day be celebrated in other countries?

More than 50 countries around the world are celebrating Mother’s Day. Many of these festivals share the same dates as US holidays, including Australia, Brazil, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Fiji, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Taiwan and Venezuela. These countries share a similar tradition of honouring their mothers with homemade gifts, flowers and food purchased in stores. Some countries do something a little different.

Today’s tradition

Mother’s timeless love and selfless sacrifice are rewarded with royal treatment on Mother’s Day. It’s a day to pamper the Queen of the house! Think of gifts, breakfast in bed, hand-painted cards with stickers, shopping and spa days.

The most common tradition of the day is for children and fathers to do the housework and cooking the day, spend extra time with their mothers, and give traditional gifts such as flowers, jewellery, or items she is paying attention to. I threw it away for a while, which included buying it for my mother. There are great offers and discounts at some stores and restaurants, as well as special offers just for moms. Movies and episodes related to Mother’s Day and Mother’s Day, as well as talk shows and shows featuring celebrity mothers, are broadcast throughout the day. Speaking of celebrities, moms are the stars of the day, so their photos are everywhere on social media.
