Thought I would tell you that my 22 month old and I made Mothers Day cards for her grandmothers from one of your Easter crafts. She stuck all those white reinforcers stickers on her handprint to make the sheep. And we put "Happy Mother's Day, from a little girl who loves EWE!"

Thanks for all the fun ideas!

Those are cute...and we love making things with tissue paper here. :) I seem to have an abundance of it for some reason!

I think those would be great in felt, too. If you have a preschooler, they could use large stitches to sew it together.

I love this project it is so easy and only takes a short amount of prep time. Cheyanne loves making the volcano erupt. We used: plastic plate, plastic cup, aluminium foil, tape, vinegar, baking soda and red food coloring. Tape the bottom of the cup to the center of the plate. Cover with aluminium foil. Cut a hole in the center of the foil and push the edges down in the cup. Spoon in some baking soda. Pour in the vinegar. Watch it erupt.

Here is another repost, we are doing bugs at preschool, so this fits right into what we are doing. I found this cute craft on the Better Homes and Garden website. My kids saw it and could not wait to make it (because it is a bug). I made some modifications to it to make it a little easier for younger kids. Do not be scared of the paint because you do not have to use it. I know paint can be messy. You will need toilet paper roll, scissors, glue, pom-poms, paint or markers or green construction paper for the body (to make the toilet paper roll green), wiggly eyes, chenille stems, green foam sheet or construction paper and a pencil.
