Pack Your Baskets
Our Mile High City is full of top-notch parks. Why not pack a basket of mom’s favorite treats and enjoy one of these amazing city amenities. While Washington Park, Sloan’s Lake and Central Park are all wonderful options, if you are truly going for one of the best things to do on Mother’s Day in Denver, head to City Park where you can spend an entire day and never get bored.

Start off by working up an appetite on one of City Park’s great rental options. If mom is a landlubber, tour her around in a surrey built for two or four. You can see all the beautiful sights City Park offers including monuments, skyline views and beautiful greenery. For the seafaring, rent one of the many options for exploring the lake, including the water trike. 

When it is time to eat, settle in near the historic City Park Pavilion. From there you have views of the garden and the lake giving you a serene setting almost as beautiful as mom. Finish off your day at the Denver Zoo, where you can see the momma animals caring for their young during this spring season. 

With all these options, it is clear why picnicking in City Park is one of the best things to do on Mother’s Day in Denver.

Take Her Out to the Ballgame
The Colorado Rockies will take on the Milwaukee Brewers at 1:10 p.m. For moms who are true fans, one of the best things to do on Mother’s Day in Denver is to cheer on the home team. In addition to all the game’s exciting action, you can enjoy some great food and views at Coors Field’s “The Rooftop.” 

Spa-ahhh
Nothing will reward mom for all she does like a trip to The Woodhouse Day Spa in Central Denver. This lovely three-story historic home sets the mood for a relaxing spa day.

Brunch at Ellyngton’s

No one does this better than Ellyngton’s at the Brown Palace. Food selections include seafood and sushi and more traditional brunch items like baked goods, waffles and eggs. For an additional cost you can chose to add your choice of champagne: Domaine Chandon, Moet et Chandon or Dom Perignon!

My How Your Garden Grows
With Denver’s unpredictable weather, the prevailing thought for gardeners is “don’t plant before

Mother’s Day.” But since it will be that special day, one of the best things to do on Mother’s Day in Denver is to take moms with a green thumb to Paulino Gardens for some shopping (another of many moms’ favorite activities!).

 Located in North Denver, Paulino Gardens is one of our city’s largest garden centers. There you will find a wide selection of everything needed to create a beautiful garden. Shop annuals, bulbs, veggie plants and so much more. Don’t forget to pick up unique garden décor for something mom will remember.

After you’ve made your selections, head back to mom’s house to plant your finds and enjoy true quality time. After all, moms will say that hands down this is truly one of the best things to do on Mother’s Day in Denver or anywhere in the world!
