Just wanted to pass along a fun idea for Mother's day! It was cheap & not too hard! I'm SO excited about how they turned out! We were able to make 120 necklaces for about $5. (we only had to buy the shrinky dink paper, which was $7 minus a 40% off coupon!) We have papers with boy & girl stick figures on them. Then you trace the figures onto Shrinky Dink paper, let the kids color them in with colored pencils & punch holes at the top & write names (if wanted), then bake them & make into necklaces or whatever else you wanted. all the kids had so much fun coloring them, and the older kids really got into them with polka dots & stripes, etc. So fun! If moms have more than 1 child in primary, they could combine their necklaces so there would be more than 1 little shrinky-dink charm on it, separated by a pony bead. These would be great for Grandmas too!The pictures of them show how cute they are, but I don't know how to attach a picture here.

Do any of you wonderful ladies have a cute card that I could make for mothers day this coming Sunday? I'm really going crazy because I don't have anything for Sunday and our Primary is huge, well, for me I know there are bigger, we have 80 kids on attendance every Sunday, Thanks for your help!!!!

This Sunday for Mother's Day, I'm going to combine two ideas from here. I'm going to use the idea about the roles that mom's are. I will have an item for each role (nurse - first aid kit, chef - apron, etc). I'll put each item in it's own bag and make them mystery bags. I'll have a child pick a bag. Before opening the bag I'll read the clue but say "My mommy's a _____ who fixes and patches..." and have them fill in the blank. Then we'll pull out the item to see if they're right. Then for each role I'll tie in stories about the prophet's moms and find one story that will go with each role, i.e. Nurse - Joseph Smith's mom, caring for him before and after surgery on leg.
