Mothers Day

[handeme]

What's everyone doing with the mindees for Mothers Day?

We've planted sunflowers and we are finger painting the pots. I am trying to think of a good idea for the card, all my mindees are 2 and under. Everything I think of I have already done for other celebrations.

My mindee are under1 so not really sure what to do with mine.

I have 2 one year olds so we'll probably do some hand prints and a poem if I can find a nice one

You could get the children to colour inside paper cake cases then stick them to straws at the top and you have a bunch of flowers

I'm cutting out a flower shape and letting the children decorate it with finger paints, then cut out a smaller circle for the inside of the flower and stick mindees photo on it.

Other years we've painted clay pots then filled them with a pansy or primula; decorated photo frames, made heart-shaped chocolates and filled small bags with them.

There are some nice ideas here too
