Whether you want to surprise your mum or spoil yourself, aligning your personality traits with a gift or activity can make the day extra special. Heaven for some is time with family, sharing stories over a home-cooked meal. For others, time alone is the greatest gift - an indulgent spa treatment, gourmet meal, or even a hike in the stunning Northern Ireland landscape.

13. The Adventurer
A natural thrill-seeker who thrives on challenges and loves the rush new experiences? If this describes you, celebrate this Mother’s Day by pushing yourself out of your comfort zone. Fear of heights? Face it head on by zip-lining through the trees or experiencing the thrill of the SkyTrek ropes course at Colin Glen Forest Park. Not crazy about water? Kayaking across Strangford Lough will allow you to push your mental limits and discover hidden natural beauty along the way.
