Celebrate Mother’s Day with a meaningful and creative keepsake! This Happy Mother’s Day Butterfly Craft Sheet lets children create colourful butterfly wings using their own handprints while exploring colour mixing.
Children paint each hand a different colour, gently rub their hands together to mix the paint, and then press their hands onto the sheet to create vibrant butterfly wings. Each butterfly becomes a unique handmade gift that mums will treasure.
To extend the learning, this resource also includes colour mixing sentence cards that help children talk about and understand how new colours are created.
Example learning sentences include:
Red and yellow make orange.
Blue and yellow make green.
Red and blue make purple.
These cards are perfect for discussion, display, or simple reading practice while children complete the craft.
