Make A Big Impression On Mom This Mother’s Day In Little Rock

Mother’s Day in 2024 is May 12, which means time’s running out to plan a worthy Mother’s Day for the mom in your life. Luckily, Little Rock has a lot to offer.

You could also ask mom if she wants to spend time with some other mothers – ones of all shapes, sizes, and fur colors – at the Little Rock Zoo. The zoo is offering $2 off regular admission for mothers on May 12.

If she hasn’t been before, consider taking her to the William J. Clinton Presidential Library & Museum. There’s a lot of great history to see, and of course, there’s also 42 bar and table, which offers brunch from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.

Now, let’s talk about shopping. Little Rock has a wide range of shopping for all budgets and styles. From small shops along Kavanaugh Boulevard in the Hillcrest neighborhood, to options in West Little Rock – including the Outlets of Little Rock – you’re sure to find something mom loves.

If you’re local to Little Rock (or up for a return trip), consider surprising mom with tickets to a show. “Super Freak: The Rick James Story” is performing at Robinson Center on May 28, and Three Dog Night is performing a little further out, on July 25.

Finally, if mom is the outdoorsy type, Little Rock has no shortage of beautiful spots to visit this Mother’s Day. Enjoy Riverfront Park along the banks of the Arkansas River, or pack your hiking boots and visit Pinnacle Mountain State Park.

A challenging hike up the mountain might just be the perfect thing to do before you two enjoy your Mother’s Day meal together. Just remember, you’re paying.
