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.
