給母親送份環保的母親節禮物

Mother’s Day is right around the corner and whether you are a new mother – celebrating your first Mother’s Day – or a seasoned pro, Sunday May 8 is your special day.
母親節即將到來，無論你是一位新媽媽，即將過你第一個母親節，還是一個有經驗的母親，5月8日星期天是你的特殊節日。

Because this is such a personal holiday, it is wise to plan your celebration around the individual. For some mothers, just sleeping in and relaxing all day is all they want – a day to just escape the hectic and often challenging life of a 21st century mom.
因爲這是一個個人假日，所以你計劃自己慶祝這個節日是明智的。對於一些母親，她們希望利用這一整天來睡覺和放鬆——這一天只是21世紀媽媽們躲避忙亂和具有挑戰性的生活。

Nonetheless, we are always looking for new ways to show our mothers just how grateful we are for all that they do to enrich our lives. With more and more mothers becoming environmentally conscious, why not give the mom(s) in your life an eco-friendly gift that also respects Mother Earth.
但是，我們總在尋找新的方式表達對媽媽們爲豐富我們生活所做一切的感激之情。隨着越來越多的媽媽增強環保意識，爲什麼不給媽媽們一份環保禮物？這同樣也是對大地的尊重。

Here are a few green gift suggestions that will last long after Mother’s Day has passed and make mom feel really special.
以下是一些綠色禮物的建議，即使母親節過了也能持久讓媽媽感覺很特殊。

* If your mom isn’t part of the green revolution and is still using harsh household cleaners, show her you care about her health – and the family’s health – by giving her a bucket filled with non-toxic cleaning products. Include a small homemade card offering to help her with the household chores.
如果你媽媽不是綠色革命的一員，還在使用難聞的家用清潔用品，爲了表達你對她和家庭健康的關心，給她一桶無毒的清潔產品。包括一張自制卡片寫着要幫她做家務。

* Pamper Mom with a basket of organic bath, hair or skin care products. Avalon Organics carries a nice line of reasonably priced personal care products packaged in 100 percent recycled materials and made with 100 percent vegetarian ingredients – no parabens, synthetic colors, fragrance, or preservatives.
縱容媽媽盡情享受有機浴，有機護髮和有機護膚品。阿瓦隆有機物是一系列合理標價的個人護膚產品，使用100%可循環材料並由100%素食配料製成——不含苯甲酸酯，人工色素，香料或防腐劑。

對於那些有園藝才能的母親，一顆開花植物，灌木或小樹——有各種形狀和價格——可以讓媽媽/奶奶每年都看到有東西成長。

* If Mom is a chocoholic, treat her to the delicious, unique flavors of Dagoba Chocolates made from sustainably-grown organic cacao.
如果媽媽是個巧克力迷，請她吃由可持續種植的有機可可製成的美味，獨特的Dagoba巧克力。

* Organic Bouquet offers a nice variety of flowers, eco-friendly wreaths, gourmet fruit and nut treats and other gift ideas.
Organic Bouquet商店提供各種各樣的鮮花，環保花環，美味水果，堅果和其他禮物。

* For moms who like to exercise, shop or are just always on the go, a lightweight, reusable compact tote is a terrific gift. ChicoBags are popular roomy totes made of woven polyester that folds into a small, integrated pouch and can hold between 25 and 40 lbs. depending on the style. These totes are reasonably priced, come in a variety of styles and colors.
對於那些喜歡運動，購物或四處奔走的媽媽們，一個輕便，可循環使用，牢固的手提袋是個非常好的禮物。ChicoBags是非常受歡迎的大手提袋，由平織滌綸製成，可以折成一個很小，合在一起的小袋，根據物品的形狀，可以裝25-40磅重的東西。這些手提袋價格合理，有各種款式和顏色。

Mothers treasure anything they receive from their children. Whether you go for a stroll in the park, enjoy a favorite movie or lunch, or simply pull out the old photographs and re-live memorable moments, just spending some quality time together can be the best gift of all and that time together is something money can’t buy.
媽媽們非常珍愛孩子送的禮物。無論你去公園散步，看電影吃飯，還是隻是拿出舊相片重溫難忘的時刻，花點時間跟媽媽在一起是給媽媽們最好的禮物，而且在一起的時光是錢買不到的。
