Mother’s Day 2025 is barreling toward us—so it’s go time to get that shopping done as the online windows begin to close and going in stores is getting trickier by the minute.
Speaking for new moms who live for geeky style, obsess over adorable tiny creatures, can’t resist theme park gear, and cherish the magic of physical media to chronicle memories, it can be still hard to figure out what someone who puts the kids first might want.
First we cover fashion because what mom doesn’t want to find cute outfits for the kids and match sometimes? BoxLunch and PatPat have you covered with looks inspired by Disney faves including Star Wars and Bluey. Then there’s collectibles including the highly coveted Labubu from Pop Mart, which is elusive but totally worth hunting for. And of course because being a mom is a 24/7 job, we have fun pop culture inspired travel and home essentials for the fandom and theme-park enthusiast families!
Fashion
Mother’s Day fandom matching outfits are so cute and don’t always have to be the same printed logo t-shirt. Pop culture themed fashion retailers have the latest looks to slay with the littles. BoxLunch currently has the best Bluey options out there. PatPat has a wide selection for those Disney theme park vacationing families including new Stitch ‘fits. Speaking of the blue furry alien, we aren’t forgetting the furchildren as Sassy Woof also has a Stitch collection to get pets looking snappy along with the rest of the family. And of course there’s a lot of Star Wars fun to be had beyond May the 4th thanks to Heroes and Villains with its incredible clothier collections.
Collectibles
Your mission, should you choose to accept, is to find the mom in your life an official Big Into Energy Labubu from Pop Mart. Set those alarms for the 7 p.m. PT drops online for ordering or in-person pick up, or seek them out in the robo-mart locations, but trust me, The Monsters Labubu is the keychain most moms want to accessorize with right now. And if you can’t find it, Pop Mart also just dropped new collections featuring Arcane and Disney’s Stitch.
