We have listed 10 Mother’s Day Kindergarten Craft Ideas 2019. Mother’s Day DIY crafts are the most expensive gift a mom can get for the holiday from your child. Here are 10 great craft ideas for Mother’s Day 2019 that even preschoolers in kindergarten can easily handle.

Mother’s Day 2019 very soon, children will be happy to start making various crafts with their own hands to please their mothers with bright home-made cards, flowers and drawings. But you should not be limited only to these traditional children’s crafts. nine0005

We have found some more interesting craft ideas that will not only be a wonderful gift for mom for the holidays, but will also surprise her with their originality and beauty.

An original gift for mom on Mother’s Day can be made from the most common materials: cardboard, paper, clothespins, pasta, buttons and even tubes. The main thing is a little patience and childish perseverance.

Paper origami flowers

What a holiday for mom without flowers. But if making paper origami flowers with kids seems like a banal idea, try making flowers out of paper and cocktail tubes, or colored paper and ordinary clothespins. You will see, children will also like to make such an original bouquet of flowers for mom. nine0005

Crafts flowers from buttons

A handmade card for mom is an obligatory gift for the holiday. Button flowers, postcards with fluffy pom-poms or colorful buttons, 3D postcards with three-dimensional details inside – additional details will make even such a traditional craft for Mother’s Day more original and prettier. And on the back, children can write a short poem about their mother. nine0005

Paper garlands

Festive wreaths or paper garlands will not only be an interesting craft for children, but also a wonderful home decoration for Mother’s Day 2019. Such a gift will please mom for a long time and bring a smile to her face every time.

nine0002 Pasta beads

Do-it-yourself pasta bracelets and beads for mom are a festive craft that will be of interest to both girls and boys. Previously, pasta of various shapes should be painted in bright colors, and only then you can start creating original decorations from them.

Bookmarks for books

For mothers who love to read, beautiful homemade bookmarks for books will be a wonderful gift. Plus, they are very easy to make. Just look at these blooming bookmarks made from cardboard and colored paper. nine0005

Applications from plants

Applications from mother’s favorite plants and flowers are another gift option for mother on Mother’s Day. And it is not necessary to use a dry herbarium, you can take spring flower petals, leaves of home flowerpots, sticks and blades of grass.

Dough crafts

Salt dough is the easiest, most environmentally friendly and affordable material for children’s crafts. And you can sculpt almost anything from it: toys, pendants, jewelry stands or key rings. So these salt dough crafts will also be a great gift for Mother’s Day 2019.

Finger Paintings

Finger painting for Mother’s Day will be the most touching gift for mom on Mother’s Day. Even children from 1 year old will be able to cope with such a task (put down their fingerprints). The main thing is to prepare safe finger paints for drawing.

Photo frame

Mothers can spend hours looking at their children and their photographs. So why not make a cute frame for mom on Mother’s Day, where she can put her favorite photo with her little one? Kids can easily make a cardboard photo frame or make one out of popsicle sticks. Beautiful and original!

Stained-glass windows made of colored paper

An unusual, but very interesting option for a gift for mom for the holidays is a stained glass window made of colored paper. Such a do-it-yourself craft will be able to delight not only mother, but also the child with its beauty for a long time, because it is so interesting to watch when the sun’s rays begin to break through colored paper. nine0005

Now you have a great selection of ideas with photos of what crafts for Mother’s Day 2019 you can make with your children in kindergarten or elementary school.

Mother’s Day gift

We can’t even imagine what sacrifices mothers make for us. And it is quite natural that we want to thank them for this and show our love. But what to give your beloved mom for Mother’s Day? After all, there are so many things around, how to make the right choice? The main thing in this business is an individual approach. Choose what will please your mother. It is also important to remember that time is what all mothers most often lack, so most of the points are related to what it is difficult for them to find time for in everyday life. nine0005

1. A day away from the kids. Yes, children are the most valuable thing in a mother’s life, but sometimes she really needs a rest to restore her energy.
2. Gift card for her favorite coffee shop, can be combined with breakfast there.
3. A gift certificate from Ozon, Wildberries, or another marketplace she often buys from. She will definitely find what to order there.
4. A book that will remind mom how good it is to find time for yourself.
5. Frozen dinners (homemade or store bought). It sounds strange, but believe me, mom will be very grateful to you when, on some very busy day, she doesn’t have to cook anything and she just uses the blanks. nine0082
6. Chocolate. Many mothers have a sweet tooth, but with the birth of children they are forced to constantly share and not eat up sweets. Therefore, she will be pleased to receive her personal emergency supply of her favorite sweets as a gift. You can also order sweets with letters or chocolates with photos .

7. Home spa set: salt and bath foam, masks, candles, creams.
8. Fragrant bubble bath. The most important thing at this point is that children’s cries and requests to open the door should not be heard from behind the doors, otherwise it will not be considered. nine0082
9. Breakfast in bed.
10. A gift card to a pizzeria so she can pick up pizza for the family one evening when she doesn’t feel like cooking, or eat it all alone.
11. Something from her favorite home store.
