Mother’s Day Cards
Allow the children to write a personalised message to Mum with these Greetings Cards. On A4 folded high-quality paper, they’re perfect for providing a bit of structure whilst allowing the freedom to be creative. The cards have a Mother’s Day themed frame around them, with a blank canvas in the middle – so the children can draw, write, colour, paint or stick anything they want there! The size of the cards allows the children enough room to be creative and get messy.
Flowers for Mum
Send the little ones home with this thoughtful Mother’s Day gift of a Wooden Flower Pot Frame. Allow them to be creative and decorate their flowers how they think Mum would like them, before adding a photo in the frame. They can use pens, paint, crayons, paint, tissue paper and more to make their Flower Pot look unique and creative.

When in nature we can gather leaves or twigs to count and compare. Indoors, we may have resources to hand that we can count, add, subtract and compare, or bring home the leaves and twigs from your woodland adventures.
