Mother's Day is a holiday in honor of motherhood, celebrated in various forms around the world. Mother's Day in Singapore 2022 is celebrated on Sunday, May 8th. Mother's Day traditionally includes giving mothers flowers, cards, and other gifts.

The idea of ​​praising motherhood goes back to the ancient Greeks and Romans, who held festivals in honor of Rhea and Cybele's mother goddesses. Still, the most striking modern precedent for Mother's Day is the early Christian holiday known as ‘Mother's Sunday.’

This holiday was once an essential tradition in the United Kingdom and Europe. It was celebrated on the fourth Sunday of Lent. It was initially seen when believers returned to their 'mother church' — the main church near their home.

Over time, the Mothering Sunday tradition evolved into a more secular holiday. Children gave their mothers flowers and other tokens of appreciation. This custom eventually fell out of favor before merging with American Mother's Day in the 1930s and 1940s.

The origins of Mother's Day, celebrated today, date back to the 19th century. In the years leading up to the Civil War, Ann Reeves Jarvis of West Virginia in the United States helped found 'Mother's Day Working Clubs' to teach local women how to take care of their children properly.

And her daughter, Anna Jarvis, made Mother's Day an official holiday. After her mother died in 1905, she conceived Mother's Day to honor the sacrifices mothers made to their children. In May 1908, she organized the first official Mother's Day celebration at a Methodist church in Grafton, West Virginia. By 1912, many states, cities, and churches had adopted Mother's Day as an annual holiday. Jarvis established the International Mother's Day Association to further its cause. Her perseverance paid off in 1914 when President Woodrow Wilson signed into law a law making the second Sunday in May officially Mother's Day.

Anna Jarvis chose to wear a white carnation as a symbol of this holiday.

In different countries, this holiday may fall at other times. But spring is the most regular season for celebrating Mother's Day. In Singapore, this day is celebrated on the second Sunday of May.

Singapore has many different ways to celebrate Mother's Day. Among the most popular are the following.
