Mom’s my sunshine craft!

 

You are my sunshine my only sunshine, please don’t take my sunshine away!

Items needed:

• M stickers or cutouts
• Constrution paper
• Paint
• Wiggle eyes, stickers and other creative things children can decorate their craft with.

Let each child grab their mothers favorite color out of your construction paper selection. This will be for the base of the craft.

You will then paint the child’s hand with Yellow paint and press it to the middle of the construction paper. This will create the letter ”O” in the word Mom.

Next have the children add the stickers or cut outs of the letter M’s to both sides of the handprint.

Then you will want to help the children write out the phrase:  "You are my sunshine", under the hand print.

Let the children decorate the paper and hand print with hearts and flowers, either letting them paint the designs or letting them use stickers depending on their age range.

Let it all dry and Give to Mom on Sunday, May 14th.

Mother’s Day Craft – I Love You to Pieces

Help your little one’s tell their Moms just how much they love them with this adorable card! You can either cut up the pieces  of construction paper yourself or have the students practice their cutting by allowing them to cut out their own shapes. Have each student fold their card in half and write “Mom” on the front. They will also go ahead and draw a big heart inside the card with the words “I love you to pieces” around it. Now they can go to work decorating the card with their little pieces of paper. Be sure they sign their name as well!

It’s a simple craft with a big message that mothers will be so pleased to open.
