"It's wonderful to share a meal and laughs with each other.

"It's great to be a mother and be spoilt in that way, but it's also great to spoil my own mother, so it's just a great celebration of mums of all kinds."

Alice Lowe said that when looking for Mother's Day gifts her gift of choice is usually a handmade, Tasmanian product.

"I always look for new presents and new ways to spoil Mum," she said .

"I often get something handmade from a market or stalls because it has that extra bit of love put into it and it's also a great way to support local business."
