Mother’s Day is coming close~~🩵 Today, NEXKY will recommend several wonderful activities for CU students to deepen the bonds with our moms. 🤲🏻🧚🏻♂️
✅Cooking 🥣
The army marches on its stomach. The main course and dessert should be ready. There are both easy menus and the ones that are challenging to cook together. NEXKY believes that every home has its own favorite or go-to dish that brings back nostalgic memories. It would be great if we could make the dish with our mom. 🍽️
✅Traveling 🎒
Both Bangkok and other provinces have many kinds of tourist attractions where you can travel as a long trip or a one-day trip. You can choose whether you prefer adventure or relaxing nature. Not only does traveling help strengthen the relationship but it also gives you refreshing enjoyment. 🏝️
✅Deep Talk💬
Talking to each other, sometimes, can improve your relationship. It would be nice if we could have a conversation more about our good memories or a deep talk asking questions to understand one another better. This is also beneficial in the long run. However, make sure we are “listening, not judging”. To make a conversation flow and to create a safe space, it would be a good idea to shift the focus to petty matters to let our mom relax, laugh, and smile with us. 🫂
✅Tidying up🏠
Coming back home this time, take a chance to tidy up with our mom. It’s a good way to do light exercise and make a house a home to live healthily and happily. Plus, while doing so, we can have a conversation sharing our thoughts with our mom. 🧹
✅Going to the spa💆♀️
Open a new door for our mom by taking her to the spa. The experience commonly faced by most of us is backache, so it would be helpful and enjoyable to go to the spa together. 💝
✅Exercising 💪🏻
Do a light stretch adding flexibility to your muscles such as yoga or our favorite sport. This is to boost your energy, keep you fresh, and strengthen our body and our mom’s health. ⚽️
🔮Lastly, NEXKY would recommend finding something to pay respect to our mom who raised us to be ourselves today. 🎁NEXKY suggests bringing a flower garland or jasmine flowers to alleviate the missing. There is only one Mother’s Day a year, so it would be great to appreciate the moment by spending time together with our Mother.🎀
Now, NEXKY will take leave to enjoy the activities with mom 👋🏻
