母親節(jié)是一個(gè)感謝母親的節(jié)日。在美國、加拿大和一些其他國家，每年5月的第二個(gè)星期天就是母親節(jié)。在其他一些國家的日期并不一樣(參見世界各國母親節(jié)日期)。母親們在這一天通常會收到禮物。康乃馨被視為獻(xiàn)給母親的花。的一些國家也都開始慶祝這個(gè)節(jié)日。美利堅(jiān)合眾國人還把宣傳母親節(jié)的傳單用十種不同文字印發(fā)到各國去，以便擴(kuò)大影響。此后幾年中，慶祝母親節(jié)運(yùn)動的熱潮有增無已。1912年，美利堅(jiān)合眾國專門成立了母親節(jié)國際協(xié)會。1913年5月，美利堅(jiān)合眾國眾議院一致通過決議，號召總統(tǒng)以及內(nèi)閣、參眾兩院和聯(lián)邦政府的一切官員一律在母親節(jié)佩戴白色石竹花。1914年，美利堅(jiān)合眾國國會正式命名5月的第二個(gè)星期日為母親節(jié)，并要求總統(tǒng)發(fā)布宣言，號召政府官員在所有的公共建筑物上懸掛國旗。緊接著，威爾遜總統(tǒng)昭告全國公民也在自己的住宅上掛國旗以表達(dá)人們對美利堅(jiān)合眾國全體母親的熱愛和尊敬。此后美利堅(jiān)合眾國總統(tǒng)每年都要發(fā)表一篇內(nèi)容相同的宣言。
1913年，美國國會確定將每年5月的第二個(gè)星期日作為法定的母親節(jié)，并規(guī)定這一天家家戶戶都要懸掛國旗，表達(dá)對母親的尊敬。而安娜·賈維斯的母親生前最愛的康乃馨也就成了母親節(jié)的象征。
節(jié)日起源于古希臘。在這一天，古希臘人向希臘眾神之母赫拉致敬。到古羅馬時(shí)，這些活動的規(guī)模就變得更大，慶祝盛況往往持續(xù)達(dá)三天之久。當(dāng)然，古時(shí)人們對女神的崇拜只不過是一種迷信，它同今天人們對母性的尊敬是大不相同的。在17世紀(jì)中葉，母親節(jié)流傳到英國，英國人把封齋期的第四個(gè)星期天作為母親節(jié)。在這一天里，出門在外的.年青人將回到家中，給他們的母親帶上一些小禮物。
現(xiàn)代的母親節(jié)起源于美國，由安娜·賈維斯(AnnaJarvis，1864-1948年)發(fā)起，她終身未婚，一直陪伴在母親身邊。安娜·賈維斯的母親心地善良，極富同情心，她提出應(yīng)設(shè)立一個(gè)紀(jì)念日來紀(jì)念默默無聞做出奉獻(xiàn)的母親們，可是這個(gè)愿望尚未實(shí)現(xiàn)她就逝世了。她的女兒安娜·賈維斯于1907年開始舉辦活動，申請將母親節(jié)成為一個(gè)法定節(jié)日。節(jié)日于1908年5月10日在美國的西弗吉尼亞和賓夕法尼亞州正式開始。她曾親自在教堂中安排儀式，組織活動，同時(shí)要求前來參加者胸前要佩戴白色的石竹花。這一活動，曾引起了不少人的關(guān)注和興趣。翌年，便有更多的教堂紛紛組織同樣的活動。
1911年，慶祝母親節(jié)的活動已經(jīng)開展得非常廣泛，不僅席卷美利堅(jiān)合眾國的每一個(gè)州，而且連加拿大、墨西哥和南美
