But at a time when the beautiful half of humanity is looking forward to the holiday and is lost in conjecture what their men will present them, the latter are frantically thinking about how to please their beloved women.
From the history of the holiday
For the first time, a proposal to make March 8 International Women's Day was put forward at the Conference of Socialist Women in 1910 in Copenhagen. This proposal was made by Clara Zetkin. In Russia, International Women's Day was first celebrated in 1913 in St. Petersburg. A sprig of mimosa is considered a symbol of the holiday, as this delicate flower is one of the first to bloom and is not afraid of cold weather.
What to give
So what to give the beautiful half of humanity on this day? The gift primarily depends on who it is intended for.
a small memorable souvenir, a chocolate bar or a sprig of mimosa will suffice.
you can choose a gift based on their preferences or hobbies. For example, if your mother loves theater, then a ticket to the premiere of the play will be a great gift. Our attention is most important to grandmothers, so it is important to congratulate in person, over a cup of tea, and you can present an album with family photos, a warm shawl, and, of course, flowers.
