Mother’s Day, is celebrated every year in Japan on the second Sunday of May, just like in many parts of the world. It’s a heartfelt occasion dedicated to showing love, gratitude, and appreciation to mothers everywhere.
In Japan, traditional Mother’s Day celebrations often include giving flowers, particularly red or pink carnations, symbolizing a mother’s gentle strength. Alongside flowers, it’s customary to present thoughtful gifts, handwritten letters, and small but meaningful treats that show personal affection and care.
The Importance of Gifting on Mother’s Day
Gift-giving plays a special role in Japanese culture, especially on Mother's Day. Rather than extravagant or showy presents, the focus is usually on items that feel personal, meaningful, and high-quality.
