Mother’s Day Celebrations

Mother’s Day Celebrations

Mother’s Day is a day devoted to honoring mothers and it is celebrated around the world, but not always on the same day. This tradition started in the United States in 1907 and in the U.S. this day is always celebrated on the second Sunday of May, but in Mexico it is always celebrated on May 10th, regardless of which day it falls on. In Mexico, the Mother's Day (Día de las Madres) holiday started much later on May 10th, 1922, so actually this year will mark the 100th anniversary of celebrating Mother's Day in Mexico.

For families planning to take a vacation that coincides with these dates, mothers have the added advantage of being able to celebrate this special day twice. In Mexico, the tradition differs slightly and the custom is to wake mom up on May 10th with the traditional song "Las Mañanitas".

So, if you do have plans to be in Mexico this year on May 10th, you can wake up mom the Mexican way! Here’s a list of what the resorts have planned especially for Mother’s Day:

Garza Blanca Los Cabos
