Are you worried about your mom being sad and lonely at home? Does she prefer living alone, away from her family? Or do you always have to leave her for work or business?

Below are some of the activities that your mom loves to do:

• Chitchatting
  Most moms do love chatting. They love talking about many things and would love to hear stories. Start meaningful talks with them about life, food, recipes, travels, the latest news, and more — they will find it entertaining.
• Gardening
  Many elderlies enjoy cultivating plants. You can let them work in the garden or give them indoor plants to care for. They can grow ornamental or fruit-bearing plants. Bonsai plants are also interesting. They can feel a sense of fulfillment when their plants bear flowers and fruits.
• Traveling
  What is the best time to go on travel than retirement age? They have the liberty to roam the world if they want to, depending on their health status. Of course, ask for the recommendations and consent of their doctors when facing an illness. It can be refreshing for them to see new places. Plus, going on adventures can be a form of exercise. Moms need to keep an active lifestyle.
• Shopping
  Comes with traveling is a shopping spree. Your senior parent might love visiting local or luxury stores. Or they might want to go grocery shopping. Let them as long as they can. Strolling and shopping can be therapeutic.
• Games
  Women are always drawn to puzzles, word games, and bingo. They can play them conveniently online or offline with friends. Playing fast-paced and repetitive games improves cognitive function in the elderly. And brain games, even those online, help aging adults remain sharp and tackle day-to-day tasks.

It is time to pay back all their sacrifices with love and freedom to do anything they desire. But your time and family bond is the best gift you can give them.
