2) Books

When a lady can't go out to events, restaurants, public parks, yoga class, or even happy hour with the girls, what the heck is there to do?
Reading is always an option for some quality quite time that all mothers deserve.
Most bookstores are still open (for pick-up only) or of course, there is always amazon if you like to things the modern way.
Picking your mom up a book she has been eye-balling for a while or finding one about a topic she's interested in, shows you're not only paying attention but that you value her alone time.
Go grab that woman a book and wrap it all pretty!
