Mother’s Day – a celebration of care, love, and appreciation

Mother’s Day, as we know it today, originated in the United States in the early 20th century, thanks to the initiative of Anna Jarvis. Since then, it has grown into a worldwide moment to honour mothers and all those who play a caring and nurturing role in our lives.

The tradition of celebrating maternal care goes back much further. Across cultures and history, people have expressed gratitude to mother figures in many ways. Examples include the ancient Greek worship of mother goddesses such as Cybele and Rhea, the Roman festival of Hilaria, and the Christian tradition of Laetare Sunday, symbolically linked to Mother Church. These traditions reflect a timeless human need to recognise care, protection, and nurturing relationships.

Today, Mother’s Day is celebrated globally as an opportunity to show appreciation to mothers, caregivers, and loved ones who provide support and care. At Dutch Museum Gift Shop, you will find unique Mother’s Day gifts inspired by art, culture, and history — thoughtful presents for everyone you want to thank.
