Do you feel like you need a Mom Time Out? I know chances are, us moms have all felt that way from time to time. This Relaxation Basket for Moms is sure to help you sneak in a little me time indulgence.
Being a mom can be tough sometimes. Sure, there are plenty of rewarding moments but there are times when I want to pull my hair out over the stresses day-to-day life can bring. Some days, I just want to hide in the closet and bring some goodies in there with me for some peace and quiet (not to mention reward my hard day with a much-needed treat).
My favorite treats I keep at home are HERSHEY’S KISSES Milk Chocolatesand HERSHEY’S Miniatures Assortment. I often add the Family Size bags to my Peapod orders so that our family can enjoy these sweet treats. We have a candy jar we love to fill up that we keep in the kitchen.
I love shopping Peapod on those days when I just do not have time to run to the market! They have a wonderful selection of groceries & online exclusive deals! I simply order everything I need online, schedule a date and time for delivery, and they drop off everything right to my front door.

I also love to bring some HERSHEY’S KISSES Milk Chocolates and HERSHEY’S Miniatures Assortment into my bedroom for my own personal candy pouch that the kids do not know about. This pouch is for my personal rewards or treats when I need a sweet moment for myself.
HERSHEY’S Miniatures
My favorite HERSHEY’S Miniature is the Mr. Good Bar, followed by the original HERSHEY’S bar. These two flavors help me to unwind and savor the moment alone! I also love KISSES, which have always been my fave chocolate!
I am a firm believer in having personal moments of reflection and being present while snacking. I truly take a mome
Additionally, although getting out of the house for cuts, colors, and waxes is a bit tough these days, I do make me-time moments for myself to unwind, clear my head, and pamper myself. I even have a dedicated kit that has items that bring my joy. I called this my Relaxation Basket for Moms–a.k.a the mom time-out box!
What is a Relaxation Basket for Moms?
A relaxation gift basket for moms is a basket, or box, of items that bring a mom joy. These items help her to relax, unwind, and savor the moment. When this basket comes out, it means it is time for peace and self-indulgence.
Relaxation Basket Items
The items that help me to personally unwind and relax are the following:
- Sweet Treats – A couple of pieces of my favorite chocolate like HERSHEY’S Miniatures or Kisses.
- Soft Socks
- Luxurious lip balm
- Scented Candle
- Bath Bombs, loofahs, scrubbies
- Soft exfoliating pads
- Good magazine or books
- Face masks
- Lotion
- Nail Polish
- Manicure set
- Notebook to jot down thoughts or ideas
- Pretty florals
For this mom time-out relaxation kit, I decided to stick with purples because this color relaxes me and lifts my mood. You can choose a color theme you like to make it extra special.
My mom time-outs usually only last around 15 minutes, unless I am taking a bath. I try to keep things unplugged to enjoy my time to restore and refresh.
If you feel like you need a recharge, consider putting together your own Relaxation Basket or gifting one to a mom in need. Be sure to add some HERSHEY’S Miniatures or Kisses to your next Peapod order.
