-
Version
1.0
Mother's Day is a special celebration honoring moms and
also enjoying motherhood, maternal bonds as well as the
influence of mothers in the society. It is observed on
various days in a great many areas of the world,
although generally in March, April, or May. This happy
event harmonizes with Father's Day, the special
celebration commemorating fathers.
Activities of mothers and motherhood take place around
the world. In addition, some of these can certainly be
traced back to the older Christian Mothering Sunday
celebration.
In the US, the observance of Mother's Day is actually
not related to any existing older activities of
Motherhood. However, in some other places and customs,
other celebrations of Motherhood have gotten to be
known as Mother's Day.
In Great Britain, flowers and gifts have been usually
brought to mommies on Mothering Sunday. This day is now
currently called Mother's Day in the United kingdom.
The date of Mother's Day has been chosen to coincide
with an existing festival. In some nations around the
world the date was changed to one that was significant
to the major religion, just like Virgin Mary day in
Catholic countries. Some other countries opted for a
date with historical relevance, for example Bolivia
using the date of a struggle whereby women have taken part.
