But it’s hard enough to get the little ones to sit STILL for 2 seconds, without wondering about lighting, composition and camera settings. But this book looks packed full of helpful and friendly advice.

And isn’t that cover photo adorable!

Mother’s Day Gifts for Foodie Moms

You know this is my favorite section – right?

If the mama you’re buying for loves cooking, this is a great place to start looking for a Mother’s Day Gift.

33. Set of 12 Magnetic Spice Tins

These magnetic spice tins are great for keeping your kitchen counter clean and clear. And they come with premade labels and a sheet for making your own label – just in case.

Unlike other sets, there are premade labels for LOTS of spices – not just the most common. So the foodie mom in your life is bound to find what she needs.

34. The Picnic: Recipes and Inspiration from Basket to Blanket

amzn_assoc_tracking_id = "smartmomideas-20";

amzn_assoc_ad_mode = "manual";

amzn_assoc_ad_type = "smart";

amzn_assoc_marketplace = "amazon";

amzn_assoc_region = "US";

amzn_assoc_placement = "adunit";

amzn_assoc_linkid = "0af2397229b2ece880d8fdf2b086f810";

Now that Spring is finally here, I’m looking forward to spending lots of time outdoors with the kids. And this inspiring recipe book has got me dreaming of lazy afternoon picnics with the whole family.

The graphics are so cute that I think this book would make an awesome coffee table book too.

35. An Instant Pot!

amzn_assoc_tracking_id = "smartmomideas-20";

amzn_assoc_ad_mode = "manual";

amzn_assoc_ad_type = "smart";

amzn_assoc_placement = "adunit";

amzn_assoc_linkid = "03329d3358aab595f56488a24380b8e2";

Instant Pot’s are huge on Pinterest right now and you can see why.

They save a ton of time and energy. This one can work as a pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer, yogurt maker and more. Can it load the dishwasher, too?

* Need some vegan dinners for your instant post (that even your kiddos will love)?*

Don’t forget to grab this helpful cookbook to give you some ideas for getting started.

36. Rachel Ray Cucina Stoneware 3-Piece Casserole Dish

amzn_assoc_placement = "adunit";

amzn_assoc_linkid = "b735d43a7082397edddf371a1269c403";

This would look so amazing sitting on the stove or on the table, right? I love the mediterranean blue color, but it also comes in brown if you prefer a more rustic vibe.

The price is really marked down at the moment – but I’m not sure how long that’ll last.

37. Keurig Classic Coffee Maker

amzn_assoc_tracking_id = "smartmomideas-20";

amzn_assoc_ad_mode = "manual";

Moms are fuelled by caffeine!

And this Keurig coffee maker is so convenient – and looks so sleek! I use mine EVERY. DAY.

But if you’re looking for a pour over coffee maker, my husband loves this one.

38. Stainless Steel Insulated Travel Coffee Mug

amzn_assoc_tracking_id = "smartmomideas-20";

amzn_assoc_placement = "adunit";

amzn_assoc_linkid = "395235c76e9c85a26cc255f8f5180e1d";

Did I mention that moms are fuelled by caffeine!

And this one claims to be truly leak proof so you can toss it into your purse while you’re running out the door with the kids. And don’t worry, it’ BPA free.

39. Charbonnel et Walker Sea Salt Truffles

amzn_assoc_tracking_id = "smartmomideas-20";

amzn_assoc_placement = "adunit";

amzn_assoc_linkid = "70291634248239123f6e2dffd0e686a6";

I get heart eyes just checking out this box! How amazing would that look on Mother’s Day?

It’d be hard to keep your hands off these once you’ve given them as a gift. But these fabulous French truffles would be well appreciated.

40. Cuisinart Electric Fondue Maker

amzn_assoc_placement = "adunit";

amzn_assoc_linkid = "cffbb1e6a1810b4823205735ac545a6e";

OK, this gift could be seen as a little self-interested. I mean, who doesn’t love cheese? And it’s a great way to get little ones to eat raw vegetables – just saying!

This Cuisinart Electric Fondue Maker heats up quickly and comes with 8 forks. You can also use it to melt chocolate, too!

A  fondue night may seem totally 70s, but they’re back in fashion!

I’m so impressed with the reviews for these budget earbuds. They look good too.

And they’re noise-minimising too – I wonder if they can minimise the noise of my 2 toddlers shouting?

I can’t even count the number of times, I’ve let my little ones watch some videos on my phone only to find myself with no battery charge when I really need it. This portable phone charger would be a life-saver. And it’s less than $20.
