Mother's Day Flower Sponge Craft

Mother's Day

Flower Sponge Gift

• Red Plastic Cup
• Green Straw
• Flower Template (Colored)  (Black & White)
• Brand New Sponge
• Tape
• Scissors
• Hole Punch

Print out one of the flower templates. Pick the color or black and white. Color it if you picked the black and white one. Cut it out. Fold your flower in half and take the hole punch and put a hole in it. Just put a half of a hole on the edge. Don't put the full hole cause it might be too big. Tape your green straw to the inside of your red cup. Now open your little flower back up and slide it on the straw. Put it on the ridges where the straw bends. Tape the back to hold it in place. Tape your leaves on to the front. Stick your new sponge down in the cup.

Now the kids can give these to their mom's for Mother's Day. The sponge is for washing the dishes or cleaning the counter tops off.

Mother's Day Cup Craft

Mother's Day Cup Craft 

Matthew 19:19-Honour thy father and thy mother...

• White Styrofoam Cup
• Bow
• Sticker Eyes or Goggle Eyes
• Red Marker-for mouth
• Black marker-for eyebrows and writing scripture
• Yarn-for shirt
• 3 Brown pipe cleaners
• Tape
• Scissors

Take your 1 of your brown pipe cleaners and cut it half. Then cut those two pieces in half. Now you should have 6 small pieces. Stick them in the top of the cup. Just poke them down in there. Bend them down or position them how you would like for her hair. Do the same cutting technique with the other 2 pipe cleaners and stick those in.

Now take your yarn (we used multi- colored yarn) and wrap it around the bottom of the cup for her shirt. Be sure to leave the bottom rim of the cup exposed so you can write the scripture Matt 19:19 on it. Use some tape to tape down the yarn in the back. Stick your eyes on if you are using stickers. If you are using google eyes then glue them on. Draw your mouth and eyesbrows on. Add a bow. You can make your own out of the same yarn and just tie it in her hair or you can buy bows in bulk at walmart. Now get your black marker and add that scripture down at the bottom.

Have the kids give this to their mommy for Mother's day.

Tape a fork to the back on each side of the paper lunch bag for the arms.

Add her sticker eyes, mouth and eyebrows. Now draw her a shirt and dress and color it in with crayons. You can make small dots with marker all over outfit to make it pretty. You can even add glitter to her skirt if you want. Using a black marker write Honor thy mother and Matt 19:19 on her shirt.

Optional: You could cut out a small square piece of paper and write, "Happy Mother's Day" on it and then stick it in between the fork prongs. It will look like she is holding the paper.
