A Brief History of Mother’s Day
The origins of Mother’s Day go back centuries, with many cultures holding festivals to honour motherhood. The modern version we know today began in the early 20th century in the United States. Anna Jarvis was the driving force behind establishing a day to celebrate mothers' sacrifices and unconditional love.
Since then, Mother's Day has grown into a global tradition, with each country adding its own customs — from gift-giving to breakfast in bed.
