Surprise Mom with breakfast in bed this Mother’s Day, served on a DIY breakfast tray made by the people she loves most. This simple Mother’s Day craft can be made by even the littlest of helpers (with a bit of help from a grown up).

And lets not forget our amazing Dads! This craft is also an excellent option for a Father’s Day gift from the kiddos.

Materials Needed For This Mother’s Day Craft

  • You’re going to need some sort of cardboard carton to make this craft. We used a Ball Jar flat that our Mason Jars come in. You can also sometimes find these in the grocery store on the canned goods or soda aisles. The cans are often shipped packaged on flats and you can either purchase the whole flat and take the cardboard with you or ask an associate if you can have the cardboard (they’re likely to say yes!) If you can’t find a cardboard flat with items you already purchase, you can buy a 15 pack with handles here.
  • Scrapbook paper or construction paper
  • Glue
  • Markers or stickers to decorate

How To Make A Mother’s Day Breakfast In Bed Tray

  1. Let your little one pick out scrapbook paper pages or construction paper colors to use for the tray. Depending on the child’s age, help cut the paper to fit in sides and inside of the cardboard flat.
  2. Let your little one glue the paper onto the sides and inside of the tray.

3. Let your little one use stickers, markers, or crayons to decorate their Mother’s Day breakfast tray for Mom.
