Yahoo reader-favorite Mother's Day gifts that'll arrive on time

Buying a gift for Mom is risky business — and trust me, as Yahoo's Gifting Editor, I know this stress all too well. Sure, she'd probably be happy with just about anything, but that doesn't mean you should settle for a Mother's Day gift that's cheesy, half-baked or overdone. Not sure what feels worthy of the woman who's given you the world? Let's take a peek at what your fellow conscientious Mom's Day shoppers are ordering.

That's right, I've crunched the numbers and compiled a list of Mother's Day gifts that Yahoo readers are buying — and giving — in 2025. Here's a glimpse of what's down below: Shower steamers take the top spot for the second year in a row, proving that self-care is always in style (and perhaps, needed more than ever). Mother's Day bouquets are a tried-and-true favorite, whether you opt for the traditional kind or a paper bunch that'll stand the test of time. There's also a lightweight duffel that earned my mom's stamp of approval, a two-tone watch that's dominating Google searches and plenty of other wallet-friendly buys.

We're less than a week out from her special day, so don't wait to add these bestsellers to your cart, as shipping estimates are fluctuating by the minute as we come down to the wire. However, as of now, all of these last-minute picks are set to arrive with time to spare.

Flowers aren't forever, but these paper stems defy the odds. Roses and orchids symbolize love, so go with one of those options if you want to let your bouquet do the talking. No water or sunshine needed — just write a sweet message in the accompanying card to make Mom's heart bloom.

A trip to the spa might be a touch over budget this year, but there are still plenty of ways to give her some much-needed TLC. This is our bestselling Mother's Day gift of the year (so far), and for good reason: Just drop one in the corner of the shower, away from the stream of water, then breathe in the good-for-the-soul aromas for an instant calm.

I'm a big fan of Farmgirl's creations — so much so that they topped my list of the best Mother's Day flowers to send this year. Our readers have also been captivated by the brand's burlap-wrapped bouquets, and this just-picked arrangement is the one to get right now because it ships free all month long. Delivery isn't available on Mother's Day weekend, but you can have it arrive at her doorstep on Friday so she can get a head start basking in its blossoming beauty.

Hummingbird gardens are hotter than ever. Senior Home Editor Jessica Dodell-Feder recently spelled out exactly how to create a haven for the tuneful tweeters, and a quality feeder is a non-negotiable. Fast fliers are drawn to red hues, so this feeder with ruby glass and flower-shaped feeding ports is your best bet. "As soon as I switched to this feeder, there were six hummingbirds coming at once," one birder boasted.

Want to give her something that's just as timely as it is timeless? Watches top the list of Google searches for Mother's Day gifts under $100 this year. Specifically, bracelet bands and two-tone styles are in demand, and this Anne Klein favorite checks all the boxes. The black-and-gold option is the best deal (almost 75% off!), but it also comes in eight other equally chic color combos.
