In Spanish when we want to say who something is for we use the verb ser followed by the preposition para. Have a look and listen to these examples:

El regalo es para mi madre.
The present is for my mum.

Las flores son para Carlota.
The flowers are for Carlota.

¿Esa carta es para ti?
Is that letter for you?
