Subscription boxes make a great gift, especially for Mother’s Day. I’ve gotten a subscription box as a gift a couple times in my life and it’s also SO FUN. The first time I got a beauty box that sent sample sizes each month of different products to try. The second box I received was a snack box. Food delivered each month, uh, yes please!
Subscription boxes can be a personal and unique gift idea for someone and can be the perfect gift for Mother’s Day!
I curated a list of subscription boxes that would be great for all different kinds of moms! Of course, I broke them down by what your mom likes, so hopefully, that makes it super easy!

How Does a Subscription Box Work?
Subscription boxes are fairly simple, especially on CrateJoy. Once you pick your subscription box, you’ll have the option to subscribe or give as a gift. Either way, the process is the same.
When you go to subscribe or gift, it will ask you if you want a 1, 3, 6, or 12 month option (for the most part). This means you’ll pay up front for whichever option you choose.
So if your box is $20 – you’ll pay $20, $60, $120, or $240. Most subscriptions will automatically renew at the end of your subscription time. Almost all will allow you to cancel at anytime. Just make sure you check your details!
For the Mom Who Deserves Some Me Time: TheraBox – Self Care Subscription Box
The Therabox Subscription is a perfect way to gift your mom some “me time” every month! What’s cool about this subscription is that each box includes one researched activity to focus on re-trianing your brain for self care. Basically, it’s a happiness activity! In addition to that, there are 6-8 other self care items as well.
Besides looking gorgeous and super relaxing, this subscription box has SO MANY great reviews! People love it, and I’m sure you’re mom would too. You have the option to choose a 1, 3, 6, or 12 month subscription. It automatically renews to keep it simple, but you can also cancel at any time. It’s a super easy Mother’s Day gift idea.
