Mother and child relationship is a pure heart relationship. Every mother loves her child beyond any measure. A mother loves her child to the moon and back. No child is less for a mother. A child also looks to his or her mom for every need. Mother’s day celebrations are very special and close to the heart of every child and mother. They rekindle their love every year. The lost memories are evoked and times relived. Little kids can now finally give lots of time to their mothers on this day.
Mothers also live to receive gifts and love from their kids on this day. Kids can make different kinds of cards and crafts for their mothers on this day. Mother’s can use these cards as decorative or keep the gifts in the almirah. These gifts and cards become a memoir for the long times. We have come up with this pretty mother’s day paper plate puppet craft for kids. This is really easy to make a craft for kids.
