Mothering Sunday

[natlou82]

We have a variety of cards, a couple of handprints, a lovely fingerprint one by a 17 month old, lots of own designs using felt tips, stickers, paint, craft things :-). We are also making clay butterfly pendants which have the children's fingerprints, but I'm not sure if they re all going to be completed in time.

Sorry the 17 month old one was finger paint not finger print - she really enjoyed doing her own thing :-)

Had a text 5 mins before leaving for childminding toddler group today that no one had arranged a craft for mother's day (or person organising it wasn't coming), so I rummaged around and took coloured paper folded to be a card, orange paint and green, yellow paper that I cut into very rough 4 sided back of daffodil petals, corks, paint brushes and pritt sticks.

Children stuck on the petal shapes to coloured paper, used cork in orange paint to make centres and painted on stems and leaves. Phew felt like a Mr Maker minute challenge thinking of an idea and rushing around collecting enough resources to satisfy 30 children!

Just tried to upload a photo but file too large - haven't worked out on new camera how to make photo files smaller yet!

We made cards at the childminding group and decorated plant pots here using pva and tissue paper. Our local florist is selling pots of mini daffodils and gave us a discounted rate £1 a pot! Tada!
