i was so excited - I got some cellophane wrap yesterday and lilac tissue paper and wrapped the gingerbread hearts up in that with purple ribbon - they looked sooo posh!

wish I'd done them before

We made cards - either handbag or cupcake shape. The littlies stuck various foam heart, flower and butterfly foam shapes on to decorate. Then wrapped little pink voitive candles (£1 each from Sainsbury's) with 3 little chocolate hearts in cellophane.

All my mums seemed pleased.

[It's a small world]

Im sure mum will be pleased. Sounds like youve been busy. Mindees mum saw one of our gifts as it was homemade hangning plant and had to show her and explain a few things. But we also made paper bracelets and a special card , so has a few surprises on Sunday. xx Heres some photos of our work x

[Chimps Childminding]

We have made handbag shaped cards, with hearts, butterflys, flowers of and lots and lots of jewels stuck on them. They we bought mugs and filled them with Roses Chocolates, wrapped in glass paper and tied with curling ribbon, have to admit they did look good!!

Hope mums like them and more to the point they get the chocolates one mindee was asking her dad to open them on the way home Tried to explain they were for mummy but her answer was "its got my name on it" - ok it had on the gift card that said To Mummy, Happy Mother's Day, love xxxx - so I guess she was right

lol! I'm just thinking the same. Mine took a picture home each (admittedly, very nice ones!) - a painted flower with their photo in the middle and decorated with sequins. I did laminate them & put a ribbon hanger on, so they looked good
My oldest mindee is 2yrs old, the rest 1, so it's limited what we can do

[SYLVIA]

We have all put lots of thought and effort into giving something to the mums. Mine have made baskets from paper plates and filled them with paper flowers in tissue paper. They looked quite nice and the little ones were able to do most of it themselves.
