To Make the Cupcake Flower Craft
This Cupcake Flower Mother’s Day Craft is super simple and quick to put together. Have each student start by coloring in their leaves, stem, and Mother’s Day page and write in their name. Have them then cut out those pieces.
Next, have the students use a glue stick to glue their picture to the center of one of the cupcake liners. Next, have them use the glue stick to put glue inside the bottom of the second cupcake liner and place the liner with the picture inside, inside of the second liner, pressing down to make sure the glue holds.
Last, the students can attach all of the pieces to their construction/cardstock paper. They can choose to put the Happy Mother’s Day part above or below the flower. Encourage them to draw in more if they’d like to add and turn it into the pretty flower scene. Aren’t they cute?!
Alternative Option
This can also be used as a card too. For this option, you won’t use the Happy Mother’s Day part, you’ll just have them make the flower on the front of the card. It fits perfectly when you fold a piece of construction paper/card stock in half.
