For all the work Mom does throughout the year, she deserves a day off on Mother's Day.

According to The Women's Center, the average mother spends a very small amount of time on activities that center on her own well being. The rest of her time is spent on family, home and work obligations.

BJ's Wholesale Club, a leading operator of wholesale clubs in the eastern United States, offers perfect gift ideas to let mom relax - and put her feet up - on Mother's Day.


Get Comfortable
- Let mom unwind on the Powley's Island® Sunbrella® Hammock ($109.99), a 55" x 82" hammock for two, featuring Sunbrella® fade and mildew-resistant fabric and sturdy wood supports. For mom's who prefer lounging in the pool, the Better Things H2O Water Hammock ($29.99) also includes a floating beverage holder.


Just Add Water
- Perfect for mom's who enjoy quality time exploring the outdoors, the 14' two person, Esprit® 140 DLX Kayak, is ideal for just mom or the whole family. Includes two paddles, two seat backs and a car carrier ($459.99).


Take a Break
- Let mom relax and express the beautiful relationship that a mother and child share with warm and fuzzy novels such as Why a Daughter Needs a Mom and Thank You, Mom by Gregory E. Lang.


Delight with Diamonds
- Show mom how much you love her with a diamond and pearl necklace ($129.99) with a 14k white gold heart suspended from a gleaming strand of pearls, or a diamond accent bold bangle ($279.99) that features a single row of diamond brilliants and 14k gold. If aquamarine is more moms' color, surprise her with diamond and aquamarine earrings in 14k gold ($179.99).


Time for Mom
- Don't forget all the work mom does throughout the year, thank mom time and time again with a Seiko Ladies' Two-Tone Watch ($79.99) that offers elegant styling in gold and silver tones for maximum versatility.

Brighten Up - Add summer color to mom's house with 10-inch Flowering

Annuals in a Hanging Basket ($9.99). Its assorted annuals create a colorful display and the moss-lined hanging pot retains moisture to keep plants healthy on hot summer days.
