Mother’s Day Gift

Mother’s Day is getting near and near and the children have been working very hard on their mother’s day gifts.  This year’s project had a lot of steps but the end result has turned out wonderful as you all can see.  The children are so excited to give their moms their special bouquet made with lots of love by their little ones.  

 Each child collected small sticks from the play yard and painted them (used for the flower stems).  Next the children painted egg carton flowers in bright colors and sprinkled them with glitter.  Another day they did blotto painted butterflies.

 To finish off their project they created a special drawing with a saying onto a sticker that they placed on the flower box.  Once every thing was done the children placed a ball of play dough into their box and stuck the flower stems (sticks) into it.  Butterflies were attached with glitter pipe cleaners and stuck into the play dough as well.

Now that I am done with Mother’s day I can’t stop thinking about what are we going to do for Father’s day.
