Mother's Day in the UK

Mother's Day in the UK, or Mothering Sunday, is celebrated on the fourth Sunday of Lent.

Its roots go back to Victorian times, when children worked away from home at a fairly early age, and the money they earned was sent to the family budget. Then, one day a year, children were allowed to spend at home with their parents. They usually brought small gifts to their mothers and grandmothers - bouquets of flowers or fresh eggs. Today, British children give their mothers flowers on this day and do their housework for them.
