Looking for an easy, inexpensive, but special and sweet craft to make for Mothers Day? Here are some great ideas for handprint crafts for kids to make for Mother's Day!
Mother's Day is coming and with it the pressure to give mom a special gift!
While I am sure no mom would turn down a box of chocolate or breakfast in bed, it's really fun to have little kids make something for mom.
I personally am a sucker for any kind of hand print crafts. It's just amazing how quickly they grow and looking back at their tiny handprints from previous years just pulls at my heartstrings.

Infant Mother's Day art ideas
If your child is young - like, under 12-18 months, they can't really do much in the way of crafts. Even scribbling or painting they often don't want to do much of.
Hand print art is perfect for this age!
Sure, it's borderline torture to get them to unfurl their fists to do a handprint, but once you get it, it's so tiny and SO SO sweet.
