Celebrate Mother’s Day with Your Cute Drawings

Looking for a fun and creative way to celebrate Mom this Mother’s Day?

Cute drawings aren’t just heartwarming—they’re also the perfect starting point for handmade surprises she’ll treasure forever. From personalized cards to adorable magnets, here are three easy and fun activities you can do with your Mother’s Day drawings to make her day extra special. 💐💖

With just a few colors and a little imagination, you can create something meaningful she’ll want to keep forever.

Make a Handmade Mother’s Day Card 💌

  1. Fold a piece of construction paper in half to make a card.
  2. Draw something cute on the front—like you and Mom, a heart, or a bunch of flowers. 🌸
  3. Add a sweet message inside like “I love you, Mom!” or “You’re the best!”
  4. Decorate with stickers, glitter, or washi tape for extra flair! ✨

Create a “Mom Coupon Book” 📘

  1. Draw tiny pictures of helpful or fun things you can do for Mom—like “One big hug,” “Breakfast in bed,” or “Movie night together.” 🍿💖
  2. Cut your drawings out and glue them onto small rectangles of paper.
  3. Staple or tie them together to make a little coupon book.
  4. Give it to Mom and let her “redeem” them whenever she wants!

Turn Your Drawing into a Magnet 🧲

  1. Draw a cute Mother’s Day picture on thick paper or cardstock.
  2. Color it in and cut it out carefully.
  3. Stick a small piece of adhesive magnet to the back (or glue on a magnetic strip).
  4. Put it on the fridge to surprise Mom with your adorable art every time she grabs a snack! 🥰

With just a few simple supplies and a lot of love, your drawings can turn into keepsakes Mom will never forget.

Whether it’s a card, a coupon book, or a fridge-worthy magnet, these little projects are a big way to say, “I love you.”

So grab your markers, get creative, and make her smile from the heart this Mother’s Day! 🌈✨

The horizontal and vertical dashed lines running through the center of the page on Cute Things to Draw are helpful to beginner artists. By drawing their own center lines on blank paper before starting, learning artists have a guide to follow as they draw.

Getting the right size and placement of lines on the page provides visual reference points that help improve accuracy. To create these guides on their own page, students can simply fold their paper in half both vertically and horizontally, slightly creasing it, then unfold. Once the drawing is finished and colored, the creases will not be noticeable.
