Small hand made fabric clutch bags, with a bit of glitter or the like on it!!!. Kids enjoyed making them.... sure the mums will love them!!!!obviously no stitching was involved just a dab of glue on the egdes.

Thankyou for the idea,lovely!Do a lot of sewing with our nursery children as it is,but certainly the "glue" would be easier,thanks for that.

also maybe necklace made out of pasta, painted maccaroni threaded on string, with the right colours may be lovely, pleased you liked the idea!

Thankyou once again for your ideas,we have actually decided on making bookmarks.(as recently the children made necklaces,plus I'd quite like to make the clutch bags at Christmas time with perhaps chocolate goodies inside !!!!)Anyway the bookmarks have a drawing of their "Mummy"on one side with stuck-on coloured stars surrounding.We will laminate,trim them and then the children will add tassles through the "punched hole" at bottom.I do appreciate your ideas...great,many thanks again!
