Subscription boxes make a great gift, especially for Mother’s Day. I’ve gotten a subscription box as a gift a couple times in my life and it’s also SO FUN. The first time I got a beauty box that sent sample sizes each month of different products to try. The second box I received was a snack box. Food delivered each month, uh, yes please!
Subscription boxes can be a personal and unique gift idea for someone and can be the perfect gift for Mother’s Day!
I curated a list of subscription boxes that would be great for all different kinds of moms! Of course, I broke them down by what your mom likes, so hopefully, that makes it super easy!

How Does a Subscription Box Work?
Subscription boxes are fairly simple, especially on CrateJoy. Once you pick your subscription box, you’ll have the option to subscribe or give as a gift. Either way, the process is the same.
When you go to subscribe or gift, it will ask you if you want a 1, 3, 6, or 12 month option (for the most part). This means you’ll pay up front for whichever option you choose.
So if your box is $20 – you’ll pay $20, $60, $120, or $240. Most subscriptions will automatically renew at the end of your subscription time. Almost all will allow you to cancel at anytime. Just make sure you check your details!
