It’s Playtime! : Mother’s Day

For Mother’s Day, Henry and I created a fun and very playful bouquet of flowers together for my mom and for his late Grandma. Here’s a sneak peak. [Full post here!]

Play based ideas preschoolers can do for Mother’s Day:

Clean the house, preschooler style [very appreciated by mom].
Make the Yarn Circle Garland into a bouquet of flowers.
Decorate a dozen cupcakes just for mom.
Make a flower or heart button collage!

Last week’s It’s Playtimeplay date had a record number [105] of play based art and activities!Henry’s not a huge fan of being super crafty [neither am I], but holidays sometimes bring it out in us. Here are some crafty, yet playful, gifts that could be used for Mother’s Day.


Colored Sand Art [Our Worldwide Classroom]	Toilet Paper Tube Flowers [Putti Prapancha]	Clay Heart Necklace [The Chocolate Muffin Tree]


Homemade Candy Necklace [Stay and Play]	Cupcake Liner Flowers [Snails & Puppy Dog Tails]

High Five to these play friends!
