Mother’s day is one of the best opportunities of the year to teach your children to respect their mom and to thank her in some small way for all she does says a caregiver in a reputed preschool in San Marino, CA. It is an opportunity to celebrate their mom. The modern American version of the holiday began in the United States in the early 20th century at the initiative of Anna Jarvis who organized the first Mother’s day service of worship and celebration at Andrews Methodist Episcopal Church in Grafton, West Virginia. Nowadays Mother’s day is celebrated in various parts of the world to express respect, honor, and love towards mothers. A preschool caregiver tells from her experience that kids generally will not do it on their own until they are told to do it. They need guidance and help to celebrate the day in a fruitful way. In school the caregivers and at home the mom herself are their friend, philosopher, and guide. Here are some ideas, given by a primary school caregiver in San Marino, CA, which will help children to celebrate this special day in a beautiful way. Children can draw beautiful greetings cards for their mothers. Provide them with some homemade paper and colors and they can draw beautiful pictures for their mother. If the kids are small and cannot draw, caregivers in most of the reputed preschools encourage small children to make a picture with a rubber or vegetable stamp. If you cut one okra, it will give you a flowery shape. Soak it inside liquid color and stamp it on paper. Beautiful motifs will come out. You can make beautiful stamps with other vegetables like potatoes, eggplants, etc. Preschool caregivers may help children to make a collage with the help of newspapers, old magazines, old photographs, ribbon, and gum. Teach them to fold the newspaper in a card form. If possible kids can bring their photographs with their mother. Tell them to stick it on the card, and it will be an excellent mother’s day card. Little older kids can write beautiful letters to their mothers expressing all of their virtues and neglecting to mention any of their faults. Just a letter of appreciation, written by the children in their own way can make any mom stop for a minute and feel the appreciation she needs to receive more often. The letter will be a great treasure to the moms. Children can make a flower bouquet for their mom. Collect some flowers from the garden and tie them with a beautiful silk ribbon. Present it to mom. A special gift hamper basket will be an enjoyable thing for mom. Pack her favorite chocolate and biscuit in the box and wrap it with beautiful paper. Children can also gift their mothers perfumes they like, soaps, or other cosmetics. Children can make a happy memory box for their mothers. Provide children with a decorated tin box and tell them to write their favorite memories with mom on paper and put them into the box. It will be a precious gift for the mom who surely will open the box occasionally and cherish the beautiful fun times with the children.
