Mother's Day Love Notes

Popsicle sticks turn into sweet messages for Mom on Mother's Day.  What meegan makes tuns a small peat pot into a container, wraps with a ribbon and writes wonderful reminders of how much Mom is loved on each stick, such as She tucks me into bed.  To make this an annual gift kids can write a new message each year along with their age and year.

Good for ages 7 and up.
