There is no Mother’s Day gift more treasured than one made with tiny hands. Here are ideas for every age.
Babies (0–12 months)
- Handprint card: A simple handprint on a folded card. Add “Happy Mother’s Day” in the parent or helper’s handwriting. Frame-worthy every time.
- Footprint flower: Green footprint as the stem, handprints as petals. “Watch me grow” written below.
Toddlers (1–3 years)
- Handprint apron: Fabric paint handprint on a plain apron. Practical and sentimental.
- Handprint canvas: Their handprint on a small canvas with date and age. Start a collection.
Older Children (4+)
- Handprint poem: The classic “Sometimes you get discouraged” poem with a handprint. Still makes parents cry, no matter what age.
- Handprint comparison: Child’s hand traced next to mum’s hand. The size difference is beautiful.
