I'm planning to give my mother a "mother/daughter day" as a gift (lunch, massages, etc). What's the best way to present it to her?

wrap it in a big box with a brick in it.

The responses here are good but the first thing that popped into my mind was an old lunch box from around her time with something familiar to her from the old days; inside there, your spa gift ; a small inspirational book; a small picture frame with a picture of just you and your Mom in it. A note card from you saying how much you love her and can't wait to spend a day of relaxation with her. Put the lunch pail in a box and wrap with a big bow - really you are already thoughtful and a great daughter so being a Mom , there is no wrong way; sounds like she already has the greatest gift a Mom could or would ever want, a thoughtful daughter. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

I would go to the dollar store and get a gift basket fill it with bubble bath or bath beads maybe some lotions a shower puff ya know cute little stuff she can use after you have your day at the spa to remind her of the gift/special day you to shared. Maybe even include a small picture frame that you could get someone at the spa to take a picture of you two there indulging in the high life that she could later reflect on. Have a great time I'm so jealous!!!

Hi atty4kids, I would enclose the brochure/or photo of the spa, along with a business card/or "to-go" menu from the restaurant in a beautiful card. If you haven't already made the reservations, I would let her pick the day! Sounds like a lot of fun! XOXO Moonpie

I would create a gift basket around it. Go to IKEA get a cheap basket, scented candles, bathrobe, relaxing CD whatever really, that way she has something to open up other then an envelope. On second thought why don't you make your mommy a stocking. I gave one to a french friend who had neve"r had one and he was very impressed

I would find a good-sized box (bigger than a shoe box), so that it looks like a "present" rather than a voucher. Wrap it, put a bow on it and even let her shake it. It will keep her guessing until she opens it.

I'd put it in one of those cute little gift bags with some sachet scent packs and some gift wrap string/pieces etc... and a nice ribbon tying the handles...... little scented sachet packs will add weight and a nice scent...
