Pretty Doily Flower - Mother's Day Craft - Tea Time Monkeys

This pretty doily flower is an easy Mother’s Day craft that’s perfect for pre-schoolers! There are many options for decorating it – just add stickers and gems to the centre, or include a photo of the child to make a beautiful, personal keepsake that mums will treasure!

I’ve included a template for the circles that’s FREE to download, so if you’re doing this in a group you can save time by simply printing the circles directly onto coloured card.

Advice for small group classes:

This is a straightforward craft that will take 20 – 30 mins to complete in a small group.

Some tips:

  • If you want to add the heart petals to the flowers, you may want pre-cut the hearts beforehand – especially if you are doing this with 3 year olds.
  • Young children will need help tying the bow.
