Craft for Mother's Day

Not sure how many dads and caregivers read this blog but here's a wonderful Mothers Day craft project.

Flowers --
supplies-
     1 paper plate
     colorful construction paper
     scissors
     glue

Trace your child's hand on the colorful construction paper.  (at least 8-10 times)
Cut out the hand tracings
Glue a circle of the handprint tracings around the outside of the paper plate.  (the fingers are the petals)
Glue a second circle of handprints just inside the first circle.
Glue a third circle in the center of the plate.
Glue a small circle in the middle.

Attach this note:

This isn't just a flower
as you can plainly see. 
I made it with my hands
which are a part of me. 
It comes with lots of love, 
especially to say, 
I hope you have a very 
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
