How do you show your daughter you love them, to teach them how to value themselves and the world around them? How do you show your mum that you love her and value her?

We’re no psychologists, but the idea of doing mother-and-daughter dates sounds like a good way to do both.

So here are 25 mother-daughter bucket list ideas to inspire you to spend some quality time with that special lady in your life.

1. Build something together, like a bird house or even a cubby house

2. Fix something as a team

3. Make something – how about a dress?

4. Bake a batch of biscuits (and eat half the delicious dough before popping them in the oven!)

5. Take some sort of class together (think yoga or pottery)

6. Splash about in the rain

7. Visit a museum, go to the ballet, see a musical

8. Go to a sporting match together

11. Dress up

12. Shop for a fancy dress together

13. Dance like no-one’s watching

14. Visit a landmark together, travel the world with her

15. Take road trip together

16. Get a free makeover at a department store

18. Have a picnic on the grass

19. Look at old pictures together

20. Share your childhood dreams and memories

21. Do something your daughter wants to do
