Mother's Day is a must-do craft.
It also falls in the middle of test week--and test prep. What to do?
I like this card because it's easy and beautiful. Print and go.
While kids are coloring their pop-art beautiful hand images, I can do a little one-on-one academics to prepare for the big tests. Not fun, I know, but necessary.
Our Mother's Day cards get bumped up a notch by gluing a few tissue paper balls on the cover. It's simple to make a big impact. Simply place a tray or basket of tissue squares on each table.
BIG glue tip: For quick and easy gluing, have one child walk around the room and place a few dots of glue--one on each flower--for every card. Kids love scrunching up their little tissue balls and placing them artistically on the page, but squeezing out glue is optional.
Your glue monitor can make a second round, to fill in the blanks.
Finish off the cards with a simple picture and phrase inside.
I love you, Mom
You're the best mom ever!
Let's reach for the stars
It will warm Mom's heart, and it will be stress-free for you. That's a whole lotta love.
Happy Mother's Day!
