Even if you can’t get together for Galentine’s Day mimosas and waffle brunches, celebrating your gal pals is still so important. The relationships that we have with our friends can make parenthood feel less isolating. Sometimes mom friends can feel like soulmates on the journey of parenting. While you may not be about to toast in person, it doesn’t mean that you can’t celebrate your love! Sending a gift or card can let your Galentine know that you are thinking about them. We know it might be later to grab some of these in time for the weekend, but if anyone understands a belated gift, it’s your friends with kids.
Our Galentine’s Day gift guide will help you find the perfect gift for your favorite mom friend.
Tula Hip Pouch
Accessories that are designed to fit seamlessly into #momlife? Yes, please! The Tula Hip Pouch is something that everyone will enjoy. It’s compatible with a Tula Carrier but can be worn alone on your hips, on your shoulder, or as a cross-body. There is an aesthetic for everyone, from stripes to florals. If your Galentine is a textile lover, our Signature Collection Hip Pouches feature intricate hand-woven designs. They are truly wearable art.

Gals and Pals Cards
Send a card! It is so fun to get a thoughtful card in the mail, and luckily the internet is full of really creative Galentine’s cards with everything from Lizzo lyrics to Golden Girls inspired art. You can surely find one that suits your bestie. For minimal effort, you can send with Postable who will do the mailing part for you! Etsy also has cute digital download style cards like the ones pictured below that you could e-send, or print yourself and pop in the mail!
Cuddle Me Blanket
Why should only babies have the softest blankets? Your Galentine deserves a Tula Blanket her size! Our Cuddle Me blankets were born from caregivers wanting their own silky soft Tula Blankets because they are so relaxing and comfortable. The blankets themselves are 59 "x79", but since they are made of soft viscose, they fold up more compact than your average throw. The weight is perfect for year-round use too. Your best friend will think of you while snuggled up with a cup of tea under her new Tula Blanket.

For the plant mom
Your best gals and pals may not be in the stage of parenting tiny kids. But, they might love the small responsibility of a beautiful plant. Talbert is another Black-owned business and is even offering a special Black History Month special. Please take a look at their beautiful geode planters and subscriptions boxes.
Tula Lite
Is your Galentine always showing you products that blow your mind and make your life easier? It's time to return the favor! The Tula Lite's carrier+hip pouch was 2020's huge babywearing breakthrough. The fact that you can completely stow away your Tula into the internal storage and still have plenty of room for all your essentials will knock the socks off anyone you gift it to. Who is more deserving of this Tula magic than your Galentine? No one. If you don't have one for yourself yet, you might as well take care of that and plan your IG #twinning post now.

We think a fancy mocktail club is perfectly on theme for Galentines Day! This Black-owned craft mocktail business offers subscriptions and single-purchase sets. The ingredients are natural, classic, surprising, and sophisticated. Just like your bestie! It might be an excellent option for a pregnant friend who has missed her weekly cocktail. https://www.mocktailclub.com
Tula Linen
We could all use a little oxytocin boost, right? Did you know that babywearing is about more than just freeing up your arms? It has benefits for baby and their caregiver. For example, having a carrier that keeps baby close enough to kiss may help with mood and feeling more confident. Your Galentine would love something from our Tula Linen collection to meet those needs while looking effortlessly stylish like they always do.
