Mother’s Day is a little different this year, as businesses across London and beyond have come up with new lockdown activity ideas.
Here are some of SWL’s Mother’s Day lockdown activity suggestions.
Pollen Disco – virtual flower arranging
Pollen Disco is a new London-based flower business, and for Mother’s Day, the company have set up bouquet kits.
These are sent to customers and their mums and they also offer a virtual flower arranging course, which customers finish with a hand-tied bouquet.
Pollen Disco are taking orders now. They are also offering same day delivery on Sunday.
Time for Mum Virtual Festival
The charity Family Action has a free virtual festival for mums in partnership with Red Letter Days.
It will take place on Saturday 13th March, with live Q&As, fitness classes and mindfulness workshops.
Story times for kids are throughout the day too.
Jewellery making – Buy Britain
Another alternative craft is jewellery making on Buy Britain’s site.

It comes with a step by step kit for mums and kids to make together.
Blooms and Breakfast – Magnificent Marrow
Magnificent Marrow are a food and flowers business and on Mother’s Day they are offering an online flower arranging workshop with florist Emma Soulsby.
Participants will receive a vase, selection of blooms and pastries and will create a floral arrangement with their mums.
Also they will be able to have breakfast together too.
Hat making – Katherine Elizabeth Millinery Workshops
Katherine Elizabeth is offering a three-hour virtual hat workshop.
It is a step by step workshop led over Zoom by Katherine.
