A gift for the Queen of Cintra
Witcher-loving moms will be thrilled if we fight for some time for them to play games and read books, or if we conjure up a feast fit for the Queen of Cintra in the kitchen together.
A gift for Hogwarts witches
She put her career at the Ministry of Magic on hold for a while to raise little future wizards and read them Harry Potter books… That's what moms with a Potterhead soul are like – they never miss a magical moment, they are brave, and maybe a little Potter-crazy!
A gift worthy of Morticia Addams
An elegant queen of the night and a master of sarcasm, yet absolutely devoted to her eccentric family. A gas station bouquet (no, not even one stolen from a graveyard) probably won't cut it for these women. They need a gift with style or one that bears the name Wednesday. Gothic. Elegant. Deadly beautiful. 🖤
Gifts for mothers of kings and dragons
Game of Thrones is a demanding affair full of intrigue, blood, the ever-approaching winter, and sparrows. It's no wonder that moms of future kings and dragons sometimes panic and have someone executed. Even so, let's try to show some trust and understanding and make them happy with a nice gift, or read their cards! Especially for Cersei-type moms, fortune-telling will be a great joy…
Gifts for Friends-loving moms
Some moms keep their feet firmly on the ground and simply know that the best things in life come with coffee and a group of Friends. We can make them happy with a gift related to their favorite show.
Relaxation for rebel moms
Leia managed to raise rebels and still looked great in a bikini. Padmé managed to juggle the Senate, pregnancy, and the dark side of her husband to some extent… Rebel women often possess strong will, patience, and cunning, and sometimes they can handle a stormtrooper with the calm of Master Yoda. But of course, some relaxation to recharge the Force is always welcome.
Greetings from Studio Ghibli
Moms who know how to get lost in a magical world where cats deliver packages and a furry Totoro accompanies children to the bus stop deserve gifts with an animated Japanese soul. You could bring her favorite sushi in a cute lunch box and chopsticks with a Studio Ghibli motif. Don't have time to stop for a snack? Remember the old romantic days and send her a postcard, or a whole stack of postcards!
Not all moms are flawless, but who are we to judge perfection? For those who need encouragement with worse cases, we've prepared a selection of the worst moms from the world of fantasy and animation.
