Flower with wishes for mum

A paper flower in a pot, in whose petals the child writes why they love their mum.

Steps

1. Children cut out 5-6 petals from coloured cardboard.
2. On each, they write or dictate one sentence: 'I love you for...'.
3. They glue the petals to a stick, and put the flower in a small pot filled with plasticine.
4. They pack the gift in cellophane with a bow.

Tip: Remember children without a mum: the gift can be for a grandma, aunt, or another loved one.

Materials needed

• Small clay pots (1 per child)
• Wooden skewer sticks (1 pack)
• Coloured A4 cardboard (1 per 2 children)
• Cellophane and ribbon for packing (1 set)
