Mother's Day in Costa Rica

Date: August 15th

History & Significance: Mother's Day in Costa Rica, known as "Día de la Madre," is a highly cherished celebration that coincides with the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This Catholic tradition, which commemorates the Virgin Mary's bodily ascent into heaven, has been blended with the cultural practice of honoring motherhood. The selection of this date demonstrates the deep Catholic roots in Costa Rican culture and its influence on national holidays.

Traditions:

  • Gift-Giving: Children and adults give gifts to their mothers as a token of appreciation. These can range from handmade items to purchased goods.
  • Special Meals: Families often gather for a special meal, either at home or by taking mothers out to restaurants.
  • School Events: Schools may put on performances or arrange activities where children can celebrate their mothers.
  • Public Recognition: Media outlets often run special programs or segments dedicated to mothers, and businesses may offer special deals or promotions.

What People Do: On Mother’s Day, it is common for families to spend quality time together. Many people take the day off work (as it is an official public holiday), ensuring they can fully partake in the celebrations with their mothers and grandmothers. Acts of service like cooking for the mother or taking her out are standard practices. It's a day filled with love, affection, and gratitude towards all maternal figures within families and across society.
