It’s no secret that this Mother’s Day is going to be unlike any other. From social distancing to stores closing their doors, shopping for a gift during a pandemic isn’t easy! Today, we’re sharing 14 Mother’s Day gifts your little one can make with supplies you already have in your craft drawer, so you can stay home and stay safe.
1. Cotton Swab Flower Painting
This first craft is one of our favorites. Your little one can easily recreate this beautiful painting using cotton swabs! Mom won’t be able to wait to hang it in her home.
2. Handprint Lilies
Mom will fall in love with this sweet bouquet, made with her little one’s own two hands. All you need is construction paper, pipe cleaners, and ribbon!
3. Fabric Covered Paper Weight
This craft is perfect for mom’s office space! Using Mod Podge, adhere strips of fabric to a small rock. Add a felt “M” for “mom” or use her first initial. Easy peasy and so adorable!
4. Paper Heart Wreath
This cute wreath is sure to brighten mom’s day. Literally!

These pipe cleaner flowers are as pretty as real flowers, and they last even longer! (Tip: Don’t have flower pots? Make a bouquet instead!)

This is an especially great gift for anyone who’s been social distancing. Simply take pictures of each child with a letter or word to make a phrase and frame it!

The perfect gift for the bookworm mom. Every time she opens her book, she’ll be reminded of just how much you love her!
11. Coupon Book
Give mom something she can really use this quarantine! This site has free printable coupons that kids can color themselves. Then come up with some things you all can do for mom! Maybe give her a break from laundry for a day, or let her take a long nap. Redeemable anytime she wants!
