Mother's Day 2026 is coming soon — these 21 gift ideas have been carefully chosen for every kind of Aussie mum because she's special

Mother’s Day is less than a month away in Australia — it's on Sunday, May 10, to be exact — and I’m sure some of you are just like me, scrambling to find the right gift for your mum’s special day.

I’ve been relentlessly on the hunt over the past few days, browsing the current listings of all of Australia's major retailers, while also perusing some of our TechRadar buying guides and reviews for a nice gift (or at the very least, a gift inspiration).

Admittedly, I still haven’t decided what to get my mum for Mother’s Day just yet, but I’ve found plenty of great options for mums of all walks of life across a range of budgets that I'm sure you too would find handy if you're undecided about what to get that wonderful mother figure in your life.

From big-ticket items like the very popular MacBook Neo (one of the mums in TechRadar's Sydney office has it on her wish list) and the new Sonos Play speaker (which TechRadar's APAC Managing Editor would love), to affordable options that can still upgrade your mum’s daily routine, like some Apple AirTags and epilators, these 21 gift ideas below are worth considering.
