Make a heartfelt Mother’s Day gift with this easy Mother’s Day flower craft for kids. Featuring handprint leaves and thoughtful petals, it’s a special gift mom will treasure.
Mother’s Day is the perfect time to show mom just how special she is. This sweet flower craft is a keepsake that mom will cherish for years to come. The best part? It’s made with your child’s handprints, making it extra special.
I made this handprint craft with my kids, and it turned out adorable. My daughter colored her flower with bright pink petals, while my son chose blue and purple for his. Both added kind words to describe me, which made this craft even more meaningful.
A Special Gift for Mom
The center of the flower says, “My mom is…” and the petals are meant to describe mom. Help your child brainstorm words like “kind,” “funny,” “caring,” or “brave.” These thoughtful words will make the craft even more special.
The flowerpot says, “I love my mom”. My favorite part of the flower is the handprint leaves.
