Mother’s Day is often a time filled with flowers, meals, and heartfelt gestures, yet many people find themselves returning to the same ideas year after year, wondering what more they could do to express their love and appreciation.
If you are looking for something beyond the typical lunches and photo frames, perhaps these reflections from Thai celebrities on where they would like to take their mothers might spark a new idea or help shape a plan that feels more personal and meaningful.
What these stars share may not be filled with extravagance, but rather a longing to spend time in places that hold value either for their mothers or for the relationship between them, highlighting a deep desire for connection, shared experience, and even healing.
Pun’s approach to Mother’s Day is down-to-earth. While others might plan fancy getaways, he finds beauty in simplicity like taking a walk through a quiet park with his mum.
“I mean, I can take her anywhere, but if I had to choose, it would be somewhere like a park. I love walking and being in nature, and it’s good for her health. I haven’t taken her outside of Thailand in a long time.”
Pun cherishes the idea of spending time together outdoors. Still, there’s a wistful note in his voice when he mentions that he hasn’t taken his mother abroad for a very long time. Maybe one day soon, he hopes.
Timethai’s idea is probably not what most people would expect. This year, he’s thinking about introducing his mum to the boxing ring.
“We’ve never done this before, but I want to take my mum boxing. She’s never done it. I’m sure of that!”
It’s equal parts cheeky and sweet, a playful activity they’ve definitely never shared.
For Ingkho, Mother’s Day is about creating unforgettable experiences with her mum, even if it means waiting until the New Year.
“I want to take her somewhere we’ve never been. Maybe not on Mother’s Day, but over New Year. I’d love to take her to Japan because we’ve never travelled overseas as a family before.”
It’s a wish many can relate to: to finally travel as a family, explore new places, and see the world through each other’s eyes.
For actress Sara Legge, Mother’s Day is a time for peaceful bonding. While she often spends the day taking her mum to her favourite restaurant, this year she wants to inspire her mum to cultivate a new hobby.
“I usually spend Mother’s Day with my mum, taking her out for food she enjoys. But this year I’d love to encourage her to grow something, maybe vegetables or flowers. I want her to have a hobby and feel inspired by planting.”
It’s a tender, nurturing vision, one that suggests a desire for her mum to stay active, creative, and connected with nature. Sometimes, the most meaningful gifts are those that bloom slowly.
For Leila, the ideal Mother’s Day getaway would be somewhere peaceful, a dream destination she’d love to share with her mum, Cindy.
“For Mother’s Day, I would really like to take my mother to Bora Bora because I think it would be so relaxing. I really want to go there, and I’m sure my mum would really want to go too.”
It’s a beautiful vision: turquoise seas, calm skies, and a moment of pure relaxation shared between mother and daughter. A wish that speaks to quality time in a setting far removed from the everyday.
Ally’s idea might be one of the most unexpected–and hilarious. She wants to take her mum clubbing.
“One place I wanna take my mum to is a club. I wanna take her clubbing. I’ve never seen her dance before, and she refuses to dance in front of me, so I wanna see her break it down on the dance floor.”
Behind the humour is something quite touching: a desire to see her mum let go, be free, and share a side of herself that’s rarely seen.
For Jetaime, the perfect Mother’s Day plan is about looking back and sharing her journey with the person who supported her through it all.
“I wanna take my mum to my university, Chulalongkorn, because I’ve graduated but she’s never been there. I want her to see my life throughout the four years, how much I’ve struggled and everything.”
It’s a heartfelt tribute to the years of effort, growth, and silent strength, and a beautiful way to let her mum see it through her eyes.
Koen’s mum is a homebody–not keen on flying, travelling, or venturing far. But he’s determined to change that.
“My mum is really stubborn. She doesn’t want to fly or go anywhere. But I want to take her to Japan. We both love it, but she’s never been. She watches Japanese films, listens to the music, and loves the food. I want to help her step out of her comfort zone and go there at least once.”
It’s about opening doors, conquering fears, and creating memories in a place they both admire from afar.
For Namtan, travel is also on her mind–and her dream destination is across the globe.
“I want to take her to relax and eat together, but if it’s somewhere we’ve never been, I’d love to go to America.”
There’s a sense of adventure in her tone and a desire to see the world with her mum.
Blue keeps his wish short and sweet but deeply sincere.
“I want to take my mum to Japan.”
Sometimes, the most meaningful plans don’t need much explanation. Just a destination, a desire, and someone you love.
Perhaps what matters most this Mother’s Day is not the scale of what you plan, but the thought behind it.
So if you’re feeling stuck this year, maybe think less about the budget or the trend and more about what your mum truly loves, or has never dared to try. Who knows? You might both discover something new.
