At my church, my husband and I used to teach a class of twelve 11 & 12-year-old children. They recently split our class, and I now solo teach the 4 girls. I love teaching them. I also get to be their Activity Days Leader along with the 10-year-old girls. Needless to say, I have so much fun thinking of ideas to do with them. Now that I only have 4 in my class on Sundays, I can do more handouts and fun activities/crafts. I was at the store on Saturday, and last minute decided to do something in class for their mothers. I saw the M&M bags and thought, "Hey, M&M . . . that's kinda close to MOM." So I grabbed 4 bags and came home.
After putting the kids to bed, I started up Photoshop and got to work. I made a cute little MOM M&M label. Guess what, I making it available for free download. Sorry, I know it's too late to use for this year's Mother's Day.
I searched on the internet to see what other M&M ideas were out there that involved Mothers. I came across this one:
It's a free downloaded printable from Over the Big Moon. It's a game for children to play with their moms while sharing a bag of M&Ms. The girls in my class packaged up their MOM bag of M&Ms with a printed copy of the game, tied it up with a little card they wrote. They were all so excited to share their gift and fun with their moms.
Hope you all had a great Mother's Day!

What a fun idea! It is not even close to mothers day but I will pin this and use it in the future! Thanks for the idea
Thank you for sharing! Love it! Will use it with my MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) Group.
Tried to download the M&M bag cover for my grandsons to use for their mother. Why can I not download only the graphic without the mediafile program file?
What a cute idea. Hope you don't mind me featuring them on my blog tomorrow. I'll link back to you of course.
This is a great idea, and very cute. Just please delete the apostrophe at the end of "mom's"
