elbows, hips, knees, and feet.

Mother’s Day Projects:
·
Card: Find the paper that
has the words “I love you because…” printed in bubble letters. Thinking about mom, help your child finish
the sentence. Then have your child
decorate the page. We use colored
pencils at school to help promote and encourage finer motor control when
coloring smaller drawings, like the bubble letters. After your child has decorated the paper,
fold the paper in half to create the card.
Have your child decorate the front of the card by writing Mom, drawing
pictures for mom, etc. Then, turn the
card over and have your child sign the back.
·
Potholder: Find the
muslin colored potholder in the large Ziploc bag. Take is out and have your child decorate the
potholder. Dry erase markers and sharpie
markers are permanent on fabric and will not wash out. Encourage your child to sign the potholder. Possible decorations to draw on the potholder
might include: the word Mom, rainbows, flowers, happy faces, a picture of mom,
sunshine, handprint, animals, etc.
Decorate both sides of the potholder if you like. Set is aside along with your card for mom.
·
Booklet: Locate the
Fold-and-Go Booklet in your letter Jj packet.
It has 4 pictures of a mom on the paper and bold black letters “Mom
Starts Like…” Have your child color the
page. Follow the directions at the
bottom of the page to complete the booklet.
Watch your child for proper scissor grip and careful, thumbs-up
cutting. Read the completed booklet
together now or save it for Mother’s Day or do both!
