Some
ideas for mom dates:
story time
go for a walk
eat a snack
write a letter to each other
watch a movie
go out for ice cream
bake cookies
spa day! (give each other a facial, paint each other's nails)
hot chocolate
spot shapes in the clouds
do a puzzle
paint or color a picture
play with play-dough
find the big dipper and the north star
shopping!
sidewalk chalk
play a board game
build a fort
run through the sprinklers
go to the park
find a four leaf clover or pick flowers
go to a movie
water balloon fight
You get the idea, make most of them cheap, if not free and easy. This way especially busy moms can maintain the dates, most aren't overwhelming, and it can help both the parent and child recognize when they do spend time together, and will be getting the attention they need!

Awesome Idea, I was trying to find a way to get my client's mother to spend time with her... and the client said that spending time with her mom was one of her only motivators. yay!
