Mother's Day is one of the most treasured occasions. The day gives every kid a
chance to acknowledge the hard work and efforts of his/her mother. Until
preschool years, mom is every child's best friend. However, when a child starts
going to school, he/she starts making friends and comes across a whole lot of
people that play a dominant role in his/her life. Nonetheless, the role of a
mother cannot be ruled out. School times are the most creative years of our
life. So, to make the most of the creative skills, the best bet would be to
indulge oneself in making impressive crafts for Mother's Day. In the following
lines, we have provided some Mothers Day school crafts ideas for children.
Mothers Day School Crafts Ideas For Children
Wheel Of Affection
Materials Required
* Card stock
* Pinking shears
* Craft knife
* Paper fastener
* Glue

* For the first wheel, make a circle of about 7½ inches in diameter. Now, using
this circle as a guide, make three more circles, each one a little larger than
the previous one.
* With the help of pinking shears, trim the circles to create designer edges.
* Now, stick the two smaller circles together. In the same way, stick the two
larger circles together as well. This way you would get two double thick wheels.
* Make a small rectangular box measuring ½ by 2½ inches on the smaller wheel by
means of a craft knife.
* On top of the box, write the message - " To me You are:"
* The next step would be to cut complimentary words and phrases from the
newspapers and stick it on the larger circle, to complete the message.
* Make sure that the words you stick are well-spaced, so that only one word can
be seen at a time. also, ensure that the words or phrases you cut aptly fit in
the small rectangular box or window.
* The last step would be to poke a hole at the center of both the wheel and
attach them using a paper fastener. Beautify the top wheel with more Mother's
Day greetings and messages.

gives the frame a support.
* The next step would be to enfold pieces of colored paper around the dowel or
