Butterfly Hands
Super cute and simple idea. We something very similar with Kindergarten students many years ago and it was just right in terms of difficulty and prep. Look at the sweet little poem that goes along with it.

POP-UP CARDS
Do your students like Pop-Up cards? Have you tried making them? We did – and it was a huge hit! Here is a free download of the Mother’s Day cards we made. It was simple – just two folds and a small cut on the dotted line. My students thought it was MAGIC.![](https://whimsyworkshopteaching.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Screen-Shot-2017-03-14-at-9.23.11-PM-768x765.png)

Watercolor Hearts
This one is a favorite of mine to do with students Grade 2 and higher. It’s just ordinary watercolor paints, but students need to have to control to work with watery brushes. It’s so simple in that they just keep painting hearts, but I think it would make a stunning framed picture. I would highly recommend thick paper, or even watercolor paper for this one.![25 Classroom Tested Mother's Day Ideas that are FREE](https://whimsyworkshopteaching.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/25-Classroom-Tested-Mothers-Day-Ideas-that-are-FREE-388x500.png)
MOM is WOW
We’ve done similar cards to this, and every time students flip up the card to see that MOM upside down spells WOW – it kinda blows their minds. I like to let them discover this fact on their own and the news of this discovery spreads through the classroom with much excitement! I did this project with younger students and we decided not to cut out the middle of the “O”, but just color it in since that cutting was tricky.![25 Classroom tested mother's day ideas for free](https://whimsyworkshopteaching.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/25-Classroom-tested-mothers-day-ideas-for-free-380x500.png)

Hi
I made the flowers with promises and sweet word on the steems. The second graders loved it. We used 90 minutes. Thank you for the idea.
