Never heard of a momcation? Well, it's exactly what it sounds like; a vacation specifically designed to pamper moms and give them some much-needed rest and relaxation. The good news is that you can tailor it to exactly how you need it to be. It can be as short as a weekend or as long as a week. It can even be just a day; whatever fits your schedule and budget. Let's talk about some options.
Take Yourself on a Shopping Trip

Staycations
Last but not least, if you don't want to or just can't leave town or go far away—you can still get away without leaving your neighborhood. Send the kids to visit the grandparents and tell hubby you need a timeout and enjoy relaxing from the comfort of a local hotel or your own home. There are no rules here.
Best Destinations:
· A downtown hotel
· An Airbnb for the day
· Your own living room in your sweats and a messy bun.
The bottom line is this—mamas deserve some me-time every now and then. It may not be possible to make it glamorous or luxurious all the time, but it can be done on any budget and in most circumstances with a little bit of planning.
So go ahead mom... make it happen for you like you always do for everyone else.
