46 Great Gifts to Get Your Wife for Mother's Day

On Mother's Day, the kids will draw on construction paper and create adorable homemade cards. They'll probably bravely toast the bread and peel the grapefruit themselves, before waking her up to a surprise breakfast in bed. They might even go so far as to spend their hard-earned allowance on something uniquely sweet. All you can do is brew the coffee and watch the kids go about their efforts safely. Face it: When it comes to cuteness, you can't outdo them.
You should, however, get your wife your own gift—one that may not be jam-covered and sticky; one that might, in fact, bear zero reminders of motherhood at all. Because yes, it's her day to celebrate being a mom, but it's also a day for her to lean into relaxing. And that's where you come in, with a luxe beauty tool she's had lurking in your shared Amazon cart for months or a barista-grade matcha maker she wouldn't buy for herself. To help you out, here are 46 thoughtful Mother's Day gift ideas your wife is guaranteed to love. From smart gadgets to cashmere accessories, she'll love them all.
