A Silly – But Helpful! – Mother’s Day Kids Craft!
Every day some days this busy mama just needs a nap! I rarely get one. But once in a while when Cliff is home to watch the kids, I’ll get a few more precious minutes of sleep in the morning. Inevitable the kids come running up the stairs to wake me or play around me. So I decided the heck with the baby; Mama needs a “Shhh – Mommy’s Sleeping” Door Hanger to remind those kids to let me rest! Here’s a cute Mother’s Day kids craft to have your kiddos make you one…
Mom’s Sleeping Door Hanger Mother’s Day Kids Craft
Supplies:
- unfinished wood door knob hanger
- kids paint
- white paint marker
- sequins, rhinestones or stickers
- craft glue and q-tips for applying it
This turned out to be a really fun and easy kids craft that the kids could make for me as a handmade Mother’s Day gift. You could let the kids paint it themselves, but I pre-painted ours and just let the kids decorate it. You could also decorate yours with lots of other things, too, like markers, sequins or stickers. It turned out awesome. And everyone that sees it gets a little chuckle, too. Now let’s just see if it actually works…

I’m also wondering if it ever worked? LOL. I am thinking they are more likely to see it IF it is made by them. But I think it needs to be as big as the DOOR in order to stop them 🙂 hahaha.
