The best Mother’s Day gifts for a special mum in your life

As a mum you will never be short of photographs. From the moment your little one enters the world and every day thereafter you will probably be pointing a camera in their face. We never want to forget the moments. But these memories often stay hidden on our phones. Now you can easily send them straight to the Aura digital frame for your whole family to enjoy. This smart photo frame not only allows you to view your photographs but also videos - and we are obsessed!

Mother&Baby Parenting and Lifestyle Product writer, Hannah James said: " I cannot recommend this frame highly enough. Since having my three boys I have so many photographs (40,000 according to my apple storage). Any time they do something new or sweet I snap a picture. Then they get forgotten about. Since I have had this frame I make a point of instantly uploading them to the device. The frame sits pride of place on the dining room table and the boys squeal with delight when their photos come up. It has become one of the biggest features in our living room. I love that it is ever-changing and that you can set how long each photograph stays on the frame."
