For example, pipe cleaners, recycled cardboard, fabric scraps, old jars, tin cans, bottle caps, and many more. 

Here’s a tip! Consider opting for DIY projects that require minimal supplies and repurposing items from nature, such as twigs, seashells, leaves, and pinecones. These are also very kid-friendly, as they teach them the values of sustainability and to be more conscious about the ecosystem. 

3. What crafts are suitable for toddlers and kindergartners during Mother’s Day? 

Crafting with your little ones is such a fun and rewarding experience. Not only is this the perfect bonding moment to reminisce about the memories shared with Mom, but it also gives them an outlet to let their creativity shine. 

Simple activities like finger painting, creating paper flower bouquets, crafting homemade cards, decorating flower pots, or making yummy cookies together are perfect for this age group. Focus on activities that allow for exploration and sensory experiences while keeping safety in mind. Nevertheless, Mommy will appreciate all the effort put into making her day memorable.
