Looking for an easy and sweet activity for Mother's Day? Here's a perfect Mother's Day activity for
elementary students is this easy and fun craftivity! Let your students show
their love and appreciation with this project to present to their special
person on Mother's Day to let them know how incredible they are.
Also includes an option for an aunt, grandma and a
blank option for someone special in their life. Great for the little ones and
upper elementary students that can write even more!
Mother's Day is around the corner and for the first time I'm definitely ready for it days in advance! The kids created these adorable canvases inspired by similar dandelion paintings by The Keeper of the Cheerios and added one of my favorite sayings. The students drew their own stems and I helped them with the acrylic paint for the petals. I think they came out fantastic and the kids loved them as well. The kids can't wait to wrap it up and present it to their moms at an upcoming Muffins for Moms event. They were super easy to make too! We used an 8x10 canvas and acrylic paint.
In keeping with the flower theme...we're almost done creating these adorable cards to go with it.
Mother’s Day is a
great way for kids to show their appreciation to their moms by creating a
special card or gift!

Here are a few projects we made this
Mother’s Day. I couldn’t decide which I liked better, so we made both!
If you’re looking for an easy craft, try these out.
What you’ll need:
Tiles (4x4) from hardware store, acrylic paint, con-tac paper cut in the shape of a heart (peeled off after), sharpie marker, felt pads/circles (to prevent scratching on bottom of time) and spray sealer for a glossy finish when you are done.
The students also wrote their own My Mom Book for their Mom.The responses and insight on their moms cracked me up.If you’d like
to make your own book, you can check it out here.
We also made this incredible Agamograph
by Art with Jenny K. It's two images that change depending on how you look at it. It's a great concept and they came out amazing!
Feel free to share your own Mother's Day Craft or activities you did with your kids. Here are some other creative ideas from other teachers...
Fawn Wessel made these adorable magnets with 2x2 canvas pieces and mod podged them afterwards and added a magnet piece on back!
Melissa Dyer painted canvases and mod podged photos of
the kids with heart hands on the front. Then they wrote letters telling mom
what we loved best about her!
Ms. Axtell's partner teacher made this template. The
kids draw a picture of them & their mom (color book style) Then they made
stationary and the kids painted each pic differently.
