It’s Mom’s Month [Newsletter]
Welcome to another beautiful month rubies! 5 months into 2023, can you believe it? We for sure can’t.
If you are new here, hello beautiful and welcome to the rubybox family. We are so happy to have you part of our community of strong women who help each other rise up every day! ♥︎
This month is a very special month indeed. We have loads of exciting competitions coming, test & review campaigns launching very soon and, best of all, we celebrate our mothers, the incredible, beautiful and strong women that gave us life.
Mother’s Day is a special day to honour and appreciate the most important woman in our lives, our mother. This year, instead of the usual flowers and chocolates, why not spend some quality time with your mom and create some memorable moments together?
Here are some fun things you can do with your mom on Mother’s Day:
- Brunch: Start off the day with a delicious brunch. Take your mom to her favourite restaurant or cook her favourite meal at home. Spend time chatting over a cup of coffee or a mimosa.
- Spa Day: Pamper your mom with a relaxing spa day. Book a massage, facial, or mani-pedi for both of you. You can also create a spa day at home by setting up a foot bath, face mask, and massage oils.
- Outdoor Activities: If your mom enjoys the great outdoors, plan a fun outdoor activity. You can go for a hike, bike ride, or have a picnic at a local park. This is a great way to spend time together while enjoying nature.
- Cooking Class: Take a cooking class together and learn how to make a new dish. You can find classes online or at a local cooking school. Not only is it fun, but you also get to take home a delicious meal.
- Movie Night: Choose a movie that both you and your mom would enjoy and have a movie night at home. Make some popcorn, grab some snacks, and cuddle up on the couch for a cozy evening.
- Art Class: If your mom is creative, consider taking an art class together. You can paint, draw, or create pottery. This is a great way to bond and express your creativity together.
- Volunteer: Give back to the community by volunteering together. You can volunteer at a local animal shelter, food bank, or community garden. It’s a great way to make a difference and spend time together.
- Road Trip: Take a road trip with your mom and explore a new city or town. You can plan ahead or be spontaneous and see where the road takes you.
- Game Night: Have a fun game night with your mom. Choose games that you both enjoy and have a friendly competition.
- Dance Party: Turn up the music and have a dance party with your mom. You can dance to your favorite songs or learn a new dance together.

Mothersday is family time – maybe a sunday potjiekos or a full cooked boerekos lunch – and by 4 o clock mommy needs to rest for a while while the kids do the cleaning up – yeah !!!!
Mother’s month❤
Thank you for the lovey suggestions , Always wanted to do a Spa day with my mommy also now that I have a little one want her to join us and we can make it a family tradition.
Would definitely do game night as we all know moms go though the most they need time to themselves not stressing about anything but having fun spa day will also do just to relax and forget everything for just those hours 😊 mommies are the best and we need them so let them have fun on their are day
Enjoy ladies 😘
I love trying new ideas
And we very out going and would love to try more ideas
These are all good ideas, but my mom passed away in 2012 I’ll tag my brother along for a road trip and art class in memory of our mom…
Happy New Month🎉🎊🍾

Thank you I am definitely going to try one of these activities with my girl
