I hope everyone had a great week!
As most of you probably know, Sunday is Mother’s Day – but, this year is a very different year than most, and our Mother’s Day might look a little different because of it.
For some of us, we live with our moms, and we’ve been seeing them a lot – so it’s really easy to say Happy Mother’s Day!! For others, though, we won’t be able to see our moms or give them a hug. Miss Cobbett usually spends Mother’s Day with my mom, and my grandmother – but this year I won’t be able to visit them, because I have to make sure that I keep them safe. It’s going to be hard not to give them hugs, but I can still call them and tell them that I love and miss them, send them cards, and maybe drive by and wave from outside their house!
There are lots of ways you can show people that you love them.
If you go out for a walk, you could collect sticks together. Folding paper (or sliced up felt) and then tying/taping/gluing it to the sticks, you could make a flower bouquet like this one:
Or maybe you could make your own little love-flower. Here is an example of one I made for my mom. Brainstorm some words you could use to describe someone (are they funny? are they good at card games? are they helpful?) and write down some of your favourites under the petals for a surprise!
If you want to try and make a colourful card for someone, I put together a quick video on a fun way to make a card for someone to let them know that you love them to pieces! I know you would add all sorts of colourful details and extra designs to your cards, so mine is pretty bare to show you how much space you have to fill with love! Everyone likes being given a card, so if you have time to try and make one (of any kind) I bet it would be appreciated by the adults in your life. Here is a sneak peak at the card I make in the video:
I hope you all have a great weekend in the sun!
