Card with a tissue paper flower

Children make cards with a crepe paper flower for the important women in their lives.

Steps

1. Chat: who the important women in our lives are (mum, grandma, auntie, teacher) and what we appreciate about them.
2. Children fold a sheet of coloured card in half.
3. They roll a flower from strips of crepe paper and glue it onto a stem of green paper.
4. Inside they write or draw their wishes.
5. They give the cards in person or take them home.

Tip: Instead of a card, older children can interview a woman in their family.

Materials needed

• Coloured A4 card (1 sheet per 2 children)
• Coloured crepe paper (1 pack per group)
• Glue stick (1 per child)
