Mother's Day Hands and Heart Card

How we did it:
Materials List
- construction paper
- markers
- scissors
- construction paper crayons
-
Begin by folding a piece of construction paper in half so that the fold is to the right of you (rice cake optional:)).
-
Next, have your kiddo lay his or her hand down so his or her thumb is touching the folded edge.
-
Now, trace your kiddo's hand with a black marker. It's okay if they move... Mom will love it even more. :)
-
Now flip the paper over and do the same thing to the other side of the fold.
-
When you have traced both hands, find the part in the middle of where your kiddo's thumbs meet to make a point. That is going to be the bottom of the heart. Draw (or if your kiddo is older they can draw) the top part of the heart shape.
-
For the older ones, they can certainly cut this out themselves but I helped my three year old cut hers out. Next, have your child decorate it with some construction paper crayons.
-
Lastly, write (or have an older kiddo) write, "Mommy you have my heart". Present to Mom on Mother's Day and bring the tissues!
