All of us at Average Geo's want to wish all of the mothers around the world a happy Mother's Day! While a great majority of the world's nations celebrate their mothers on the second Sunday in May, some countries commemorate their mothers throughout the year. As you can see, the most popular month to celebrate Mother's Day after May, is March. The United Kingdom and Ireland celebrate Mother's Day on the fourth Sunday of Lent, while much of the Middle East celebrates it on the vernal equinox, March 21. Many Eastern European nations also celebrate Mother's Day in March, on March 8. Other popular months to celebrate Mother's Day are February (Norway), April (Nepal, Costa Rica, and Armenia), June (Mongolia and Kenya), August (Thailand), October (Argentina, Malawi, and Belarus), November (Russia), and December (Indonesia and Panama).
