For Mom, From Toddler
This is what I helped the little ones make for their mothers this Mother's Day.
It's sometimes difficult to come up with gifts for toddlers to make that don't look like a craft that the adult created while the child looked on!
This is easy, easy. But when it comes to squirmy one year olds, simple is always better!
These pictures can be made by any age child, and are an excellent choice if you have little ones. I used card stock and Crayola finger paints, letting one color of hand prints dry before using the second color. These could be made with all sorts of variations and can easily be adapted for Father's Day. Just be sure you write Dad instead of Mom!! hahaha
Keeping it simple,I mounted each picture on a coordinating color of paper. It's either ready to frame or can be placed in a scrapbook for safe-keeping!

Love it! I am sure you had some happy Mom's.
Who doesn't love a craft with the tot's handprint? Very cute.
One of my boys gave me a potholder that had his handprint and the words, "Hands down, you're the best."
