It is funny that you think Mother's day is on the same day all over the world, because I know, here in Germany it is celebrated on the same day as in the USA...BUT Father's Day is a not on the same day as the American one. I will have to ask some friends and let everyone know. Inquiring minds want to know!!!

Dutch Mother's Day is sunday the 15th of may this year, but i remember in England it is on anotehr day. We always celebrate my nana's mother's day (English) on another day than my mum's.. so i think they aren't on the same date.

I just want to share this

Thailand mother'ss day is 12th of August and every year is the same and mother's day is the queen's birthday thatwhy we call this day mothers day.

In Thailand we celebreat mother'ss day by giving her lots of jasmin flower and buy some gift for her.

Happy day for all mothers

Quoting sophie:

Why do I have the impression that Monther's day is celebrated on the same date all over the world?



That's also my illusion too
Here in Hk, Mother's Day is on the 2nd Sunday in May, so it's on different date every year...
Likewise, Father's Day here is on the 1st Sunday in June, weird system but sounds interesting need not to remember the exact dates

The reason the UK celebrate Mother's Day on a different day, is that we still celebrate the traditional Mothering Sunday which falls on the 4th Sunday of Lent (this year 26th March), when the 'fast' of Lent ended and people went to their home towns to their original churches. Because many people had not seen their mothers for a long time, they took them flowers or gifts and so it became 'Mothering Sunday'. The MOTHER'S DAY celebrated in USA and other countries, is a different celebration
