As a mom, there’s nothing I love more than gifts my kids make with their own precious hands–hands I held when they were just tiny and wrinkly. Handmade Mother’s Day crafts never get old. They’re the best because they come straight from the heart. Here are the 22 sweetest Mother’s Day crafts kids and teens can do to make mom’s and grandma’s heart melt.
