On Mother's Day in Animal Crossing: City Folk and Animal Crossing: New Leaf, the player will receive a Pink Carnation in a letter from their mother, similar to how the player receives a Red Carnation on Father's Day.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons

While Mother's Day does not appear in Animal Crossing: New Horizons as a standard event, it appears as a Nook Shopping seasonal event throughout May in which the player can purchase the Thank-You Mom Mug from Nook Shopping for 600 Bells.

Recurrence

Mother's Day is dependent on the region of the game (North American, Japan, European, or Korean). For the European release of New Leaf, it is dependent on the language of the game and not on the country set. For example, if the country set in the 3DS is Germany but the language set is Spanish, Mother's Day will fall on the first Sunday of May.

  • North America: Second Sunday of May
  • Japan: Second Sunday of May
  • Europe (English): Mothering Sunday (Fourth Sunday of Lent)
  • Europe (Spanish): First Sunday of May
  • Europe (French): Last Sunday of May
  • Europe (German/Italian): Second Sunday of May
  • Korean: May 8, and the name of the event is Parents' Day
