Our Experience With This Flower Craft For Kids
We had fun making this flower craft. Especially the hand part. That took a little troubleshooting, but we got it! We made so many different flowers. And the best part is, this would make such a cute card for Mother’s day, Grandparents day, or even Valentine’s day.
I will say with my littlest one, while they have the cutest tiniest hands, they couldn’t hold as many flowers. So, you may not need as many flowers if your child is still very small.
But, we hope your family has as much fun making this flower craft for kids as mine did!
