Let's be honest: Moms do the most. Whether it's raising kids, running the household, managing her own business or just keeping everyone's shoes by the front door, she deserves something way more exciting than a last-minute flower bouquet and a card that says, "You're the best."
If you want to give the mom in your life something she'll actually use (and brag about to her friends), check out these 10 standout finds from Kickstarter. They're clever, techy, pampering and fun — just like her.
And yes, these are all real, crowdfunded products — some of which have already raised hundreds of thousands of dollars from fans who clearly know what's good. Bonus: You're supporting inventors, creators and even some Utah locals along the way.
Here are 10 Mother's Day gifts she'll remember (and maybe even share on Instagram).
1. eufyMake UV Printer E1
For the creative queen.
The sleek, aesthetic mom printer of her dreams.
If your mom is the artsy type who loves personalized everything — phone cases, journals, photo frames, you name it — this just might blow her mind. The eufyMake UV Printer E1 is a high-tech, home-use printer that uses UV light to instantly print stunning, textured designs onto practically any flat surface. We're talking 3D-texture prints that can mimic wood grain, embossed leather or even glass etching. Think Cricut, but way more pro. It's compact enough to sit on a desk, but powerful enough to launch an Etsy shop.
It's also the most high-end product on Kickstarter right now, coming in at $1,699 for early backers — so it's definitely a splurge. But if your mom deserves the coolest tech gift of the year (and you've got siblings to split it with), this is a total showstopper.
Early Bird Price: ~$1699
2. Haven Safari Tent
Glamping. In a hammock. With mom.
From a Wasatch local brand doing hammock-camping right.
If your mom loves nature but not waking up with a sore back, meet the Haven Safari: the glamping-ready version of Haven's genius lay-flat hammock tent. This isn't your average banana-bend hammock — it's a spacious, bed-like sleep system that feels more like a floating cabin in the woods.
Made with ultra-rugged 300D polyester canvas, it's stable, weather-resistant, and super cozy — perfect for car camping, overlanding or backyard retreats. Comes with a built-in bug net, insulated pad and a rainfly for all-weather adventures.
For the mama who deserves a weekend escape that feels like a five-star forest spa.
Price: Varies by model
3. iCreamLab Smart Ice Cream Maker — Because dessert is self-care
For the sweet-tooth Mama.
Let her skip the store-bought tub and whip up her custom batch of ice cream, sorbet or frozen yogurt in under an hour. The touch screen on this ice cream maker is intuitive, the process is fully automatic, and the results? Chef's kiss. It's the sweet indulgence she deserves after juggling everyone else's needs all day.
Early Bird Price: ~$199

With an intuitive equalizer, she can fine-tune frequencies to create the perfect auditory environment for sleep or focus. Unlike many devices, Nocturne operates without the need for a phone or app, promoting better sleep hygiene. Its sleek design and user-friendly controls make it a stylish and practical addition to any bedroom.
Ideal for the mom who values her rest and appreciates thoughtful, tech-savvy solutions to everyday challenges.

With 70 minutes of runtime and enough water for five full showers, this setup turns any campsite or parking lot into a spa-level refresh.

7. QuickFreezer – Instant frozen drink and treat maker
For the Swig-loving, slushie-sipping mom.

The QuickFreezer is perfect for afternoon pick-me-ups or treating the kids without leaving the house. Simple, satisfying and totally mom-approved.
Early Bird Price: ~$199
8. PETLUX V3 self-cleaning litter box
For the cat mom who's done scooping.
Let's be honest: The cat is her other child. And this gift makes both their lives easier. The PETLUX V3 automates the ickiest part of cat ownership, controls odors and even looks sleek in a modern home. If she's been stuck doing the scooping, this is your cue to give her an upgrade.

Because Utah adventures come with gear.
From weekend camping trips in Moab to hauling snacks, toys and picnic supplies at Liberty Park, the Kangaroo Porter is the collapsible utility cart that makes it all easier.

For the mom who's done with screen fatigue.

With seven-plus days of battery life, all-day wellness tracking, and a stainless steel build that's both elegant and durable, this next-gen wearable keeps her connected without being consumed. It's smart tech for the mom who lives in the moment.

This Mother's Day, skip the cliche and give her something that actually makes life better. Whether she's a DIY diva, outdoorsy goddess or needs a serious nap, there's something here she'll love (and maybe not share).
Bonus points if you pair it with brunch and a handwritten note that says, "Thanks for keeping us alive."
