The best gift experiences to give Mom this Mother's Day

She's had her fair share of cake by now, so give her the next best thing: cookies, and lots of 'em. With a Goldbelly subscription, she'll get a box of freshly baked cookies from top bakeries around the country for the next three, six, nine or 12 months. A new flavor adventure awaits each and every month — one month may take her to Hawaii (Maui Cookie Company), another will bring her to the Big Apple (New York City's William Greenberg Bakery).

Want to teach an old dog (er, Dad) some new tricks? Then sign him up for MasterClass for just $5 a month, so he can get a treasure trove of online classes taught by experts in their craft. He can go courtside with Coach K to learn how to lead a team to victory, step into the kitchen to master cooking basics from none other than Gordon Ramsay, or choose from any of the other 200+ classes that interest him most. 

Creative, crafty moms can stretch their skills with this at-home pottery kit. It comes with enough clay, varnish and paint to make two pots or planters — one for Mom, one for her favorite kid (you!). Need a few pottery pointers? Follow Sculpd's step-by-step guide and video tutorials.

Fresh flowers and Mother's Day go together like, well, you and your mom. Instead of sending her yet another bouquet, sign her up for a flower-arranging workshop that she can attend anytime, anywhere. She'll get a box of pretty blooms from 1-800-Flowers and a vase shipped right to her door, then she can follow the step-by-step video to arrange it to her liking.

She has a lot of tales up her sleeve. With Storyworth, she'll get weekly prompts (like "What is the furthest you've ever traveled?") to guide her story. Once the year's up, all of the best ones can be compiled and bound in a hardcover book.

Her fur baby will become her muse in this online painting class led by artist Addie Stunkard. Everyone starts with a black-and-white printed photo of their pet, which they'll trace onto watercolor paper and bring to life with paint. Make sure she has all the materials at home before it's time for class, or play it safe by picking up the watercolor set for an extra $30 so she's set and ready to go.

You can buy her a gift basket with all the lotions and potions in the world, but nothing tops a trip to the spa. A SpaFinder gift card is your best bet because she can use it at thousands of spas around the country for whatever, whenever — a facial, manicure, massage, full-body treatment, you name it. 

The mountains are calling you and your mom! This pass gives her and the rest of the fam year-long access to parks and sites across the country. It'll cover the entrance fee for the entire vehicle (or an additional three adults at sites that charge per person), so she just has to worry about getting to the destination. 

She appreciates a good cup of coffee as much as the next person, but this class takes things to the next level. Driftaway Coffee will send her a box with five pre-measured whole bean or ground coffees, five glasses and additional info about the tasting, which can she do solo or on Zoom with other budding brewmasters. But that's not all: She'll also get the brand's Coffee Explorer Box, which includes five two-ounce bags of coffee to keep the caffeine buzz going after the tasting. 

Show, don't tell with a great gift that'll take both of you out of your element. Redeem this voucher for a two-person activity in dozens of cities around the world, from a line dancing class in Nashville to beer tasting in Belgium. Let this be the catalyst for a trip to remember — or at the very least, a weekend away from home. 

A daycation is just what she needs. Use ResortPass to send her off to a hotel or spa for a day of pampering and pool time. While you can always call the shots for her by booking a specific date and time, a gift card lets her take matters into her own hands. Just be sure to check out the pricing in your area to ensure the gift card covers the whole experience. 

Picking out a perfume for someone else is risky business, but this fragrance customization kit will let her take the reins. She'll get nine samples of its core scents along with a $20 credit to redeem a Tinkerer Box, which comes with six custom variations of her favorite scent from the original sampling. Once she settles on her overall favorite from the bunch, she can use the credit on the Tinkerer Box sleeve to order a full-size perfume.

You love your mom's cooking and I'm not looking to get you in trouble here, so be sure to make that clear before you hand her this gift card. Think of Cozymeal as a way to broaden her horizons in the kitchen. All classes, whether virtual or in-person, are taught by the same caliber of chef, so she's guaranteed to learn from culinary's best. Give her enough money to cover the cost of a class (virtual classes start at $39), so she can pick from cuisines, themes and experience levels.

Eating chocolate is an experience as it is, but why don't you go ahead and make a game out of it? Dandelion Chocolate will take her tastebuds on a journey in their virtual tasting, where she'll learn about flavor notes and pairing suggestions. First things first: She'll receive a box with five chocolate bars, a tasting sheet to jot down notes and instructions on how to sign up for her class. All you have to do is buy the tasting set, then she handles the rest! 

They have tons of professional photos from their engagement and wedding day, but that's about it. Are they heading on a bucket list-worthy vacation soon? Then send them a Flytographer gift card, which they can redeem for a photo sesh in one of 350 cities worldwide. A $325 gift card will cover a 30-minute session, but spring for next level to get 35 photos in one or two locations ($425).
