The phrase refers to inflated decorative items, frequently made of latex or foil, specifically chosen or intended as a gift or celebratory decoration in recognition of maternal figures on a designated holiday. These items often feature thematic designs, colors, or messages relevant to the occasion. For example, a bouquet of heart-shaped, pink, and white inflatables delivered to a home signifies the celebration.
The significance lies in their ability to visually represent appreciation and festivity. They provide a cheerful and visually appealing element to the celebration. Historically, the use of inflatables for celebrations has evolved from simple rubber balloons to elaborate arrangements and custom designs reflecting individual sentiments. Their transient nature symbolizes the fleeting, yet cherished, moments of the holiday.
