I can vaguely remember a movie from either the late 80s or early to mid 90s.

It was about three brothers, who don't treat their mother with the respect she deserves, and then one morning she's just disappeared. The boys don't know whats going on and they have to fend for themselves. Then i think a fair-like this comes to town and they get three tokens/coins to try out a variety of different mums. Each mum that they try out though just doesnt suit them, so they eventually go and smash the coin machine and steal more coins so they can try more mums. When all hope is lost and they don't think they are ever going to see their mum again, she reappears one morning, all is happy again.

Would really appreciate any help. Cheers.

Maybe it is Trading Mom (1994)?
