Celebrating Mother’s Day on Mothering Sunday is a celebration held to honour mothers and all maternal figures. The day has evolved into an occasion for children to honour and give presents to their hardworking mums. It is a day dedicated to mums and maternal figures, where they are the centre of attention. This year on Sunday 14th March make sure to celebrate Mother’s day with your mum with some delicious chocolate to make their day!
History of Mothering Sunday
Like with many traditions, Mothering Sunday began with a religious purpose, and on the fourth Sunday in Lent. This is exactly 3 weeks before Easter Sunday and was originally a day to honour and give thanks to virgin Mary, also known as Mother Mary. These celebrations required people to visit their ‘mother’ church. Mothering Sunday was firmly put on the calendar in the 16th century as celebrations increased. These gatherings are so important to reunite families and give everyone a day off.
