DISCOVER. 5 Arts and Crafts Activities to Try for Mothers Day

Friday, 12 May 2017

Mothers' Day this year is Sunday 14th May. It's a special day to show your mum or host mum how much you care about them and how much you appreciate them.  If you're out of arts and crafts ideas to share with your children this week, why don't you put your creative hats on and try one of these fun activities.

Here are 5 Mothers' Day gift ideas you can create at home:

1. Clay Hand Jewellery Holder

This clay hand jewellery holder will be loved by all mums and something they can cherish forever. All you really need is some oven bake clay and craft paints. For the full instructions, visit here.

2. Photo Bookmarks

These photo bookmarks are a great present for any occasion. We think they're so cute! If your mum is a bookworm, she'll definitely make use of these. Click here for the full instructions.

3. Smile Blossom Frames

These are super simple to make and can be presented as a card or in a picture frame with the glass removed. Who doesn't want a smiling blossom displayed in their bedroom or living room? 

4. Hand Heart Card

If your children are too young to make the more sophisticated arts and crafts presents with you, this will be perfect. All you need them to help with is creating the lovely heart. They can also write a special message or draw something for their mum.

5. Egg Carton Flowers

Making these lasting flowers is a fun way for your children to experiment with different paints and colours. Adding a little pom pom in the middle adds the perfect last touch which your mum will love. Try this out!
