15 Last-Minute Mother’s Day Gifts On Amazon Prime That Are Actually Thoughtful (You're Welcome)

Know a book-loving mom who still doesn’t have an e-reader? Bring her into the 21st century. The Kindle Paperwhite not only has 24 different levels of illumination—so she can read anytime, anywhere—but it also has the most storage space of all the Kindle models. This means she’ll have 24/7 access to all the e-books, audiobooks, and podcasts her heart desires (perfect for when she’s bored waiting in the parent pick-up line at school yet again). And that’s not all that we love about the Paperwhite; it’s also waterproof, so moms won’t have to worry about errant apple juice spills and, even better, can take their books in the bath for some uninterrupted reading time.

Just because you’re shopping last-minute doesn’t mean you can’t get the mom in your life a meaningful piece of jewelry. It seems like everyone and their … well, mother, is wearing some form of the uber-trendy “Mama” necklace, and we can’t get enough, either. (Wear it loud and wear it proud!) This piece by Benevolence LA is 14 karat gold plated for a lovely sheen. Even more heartwarming, part of each purchase goes to charitable organizations that help combat poverty and human trafficking. Buying gifts that do good for the world will make Mom so proud!

Clean, affordable skincare that’s specifically designed not to mess with hormones (and is available on Prime)? Yes, please! Knours’ Everyday Mask is soothing, safe, and nourishing for moms of all ages and stages, from expecting and breastfeeding moms to moms of teens, to grandmothers who deserve some R & R after chasing the grandkids around (possibly your kids!).

Oh Burt’s Bees, how we love you. This set comes with 6 products nestled in a gift-worthy tin. Even better, if you’re sending this present, it’ll arrive ready to open as if you packed it yourself. Included are cuticle cream, hand salve, lip balm, Res-Q ointment, hand cream, and foot cream — essentially, everything Mom needs for head-to-toe self-care.

Sure she has plenty of old t-shirts to wear to bed, but doesn’t she deserve a cute matching set? You can’t go wrong with gifting any mom these soft cotton PJs, which feature a classic button-up design and come in a dozen different colors.

For the Mama whose love is fierce, she can keep cozy in her den — er — home with these adorable scuffers. In addition to their ultra-plush upper, the memory foam insole makes these slides extra comfy (and her favorite part of her new WFH uniform, no doubt).

With notes of sea salt, jasmine, wood, and cream, Mama will love the scent and sentiment of this “Best Mom Ever” candle. An Amazon Handmade product, it’s handcrafted by a small business in Pennsylvania, and yes — it’s available for Prime delivery!

This is the perfect device to have in your kitchen while you’re trying to follow a recipe, or catch up with your parents who haven’t seen in what seems like 5,000 years because of the pandemic. It offers seamless communication, entertainment (you can connect with streaming platforms like Hulu, so you can watch Padma Lakshmi’s Taste the Nation while you cook up some stir fry, ask Alexa to show you what’s going on with your security cameras, dim the lights, control the thermostat, and much more).

Ma can enjoy cocktail hour in the comfort of her own home with this Moscow Mule kit. From the makers of those travel-sized cocktail tins (you know the ones), this set has all the fixin’s for three refreshing spring sippers, including ginger syrup and lime juice packets, bitters, stirrers, cloth coasters, and two classic copper mule mugs — all that’s left to do is add vodka. Cheers!

Send your tea-loving Ma a gift that’s wrapped and ready to go. This Michael Grace Gifts set comes with an insulated wine tumbler, 12 Tazo tea bags, and 10 honey sticks, so next time she curls up with a warm cup, she’ll think of you.
