Being a mom is quite a hard job and, just like any other job, motherhood has a day of appreciation too. So what is the story behind Mother’s Day, when and how is it celebrated, and how do you prepare for Mother’s Day 2020 in terms of web design. Let’s figure this out together.
Mother’s Day: History and Social Significance
Mother’s Day is a celebration of motherhood as well as honoring and appreciation for our moms. The holiday is celebrated all over the world and doesn’t have a fixed date. In some countries, it is celebrated in November, in other ones in February, but most countries celebrate Mother’s Day either in March or May. Thus, in the United States, Mother’s Day is celebrated on the second Sunday of May and this year it is May 10.
The holiday itself is relatively new, it was first officially established by the US Congress on May 8, 1914. After World War I, such countries as Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Germany, and the Czechoslovak Republic started the tradition of celebrating Mother’s Day as well. Although, the holiday has a rather long history. Beginning from the 17th century, a holiday known as Mothering Sunday was celebrated in Great Britain. Thus, the fourth Sunday of Lent was dedicated to honoring mothers all over the country.
The idea of devoting a day to commemorating motherhood originated in the pacifist movement. Thus, in the US, the idea was first brought to the public by a famous American pacifist Julia Ward Gove in 1872. According to Julia Ward, it was the day of mothers’ unity in the fight for peace around the world. However, her concept has not been widely supported by the society at that time.
In 1907, Anna Jarvis put forward an initiative to honor mothers and their role in the lives of each person in memory of her mother, Anna Maria Reeves-Jarvis, a well-known public figure who fought for the development of healthcare in the United States. Jarvis wrote letters to government agencies, legislatures, and prominent individuals with a proposal to devote one day of the year to honor mothers. Finally, in 1910, the state of Virginia first declared Mother’s Day an official holiday.
A couple of years later, in 1914, US President Woodrow Wilson declared the second Sunday of May a national holiday in honor of all the American mothers. Eventually, after World War I, Mother’s Day has spread to the European countries and now is celebrated all around the globe.
As you can see, this relatively young holiday has a pretty long history as well as substantial social significance. So no wonder it influences design and marketing. Thus, in order to get ready for this very holiday (and there is actually not much time for preparation left), you might want to add some Mother’s Day design elements to your collection. Well, say no more, here they come.

1. Mother's Day has even more meaning this year because moms have been making this unprecedented time feel not so weird to their children. There are so many mothers who are working from home for the first time, but also trying to help their kids navigate remote learning. There's tremendous pressure on their shoulders right now, but they're holding it all together for their kids. That's why there's even more reason to celebrate moms this year!
2. While this Mother's Day will be particularly difficult for mothers who are unable to be with their children right now because of the coronavirus, that doesn't mean they can't still connect on a highly emotional level. Words carry weight and most of us can exchange them virtually or through the mail.
3. A great way to show mom you care if you can't physically be with her is to think about some of your favorite memories with her from over the years. Write down the most happy, funny, and uplifting moments that you can remember. Come up with a message recalling those memories and either read it to her over video or send it to her with a postcard or letter. It'll be sure to lift mom's spirits and make her feel loved and appreciated on this Mother's Day!
