A handmade gift
A handmade gift ~ Moms love a handmade gift made by their children. It doesn’t have to be complicated and kids can enlist their dad, babysitter or a grandparent to help them create something. A knotted blanket is easy for children to make, with a little help from a grown up. Just take two pieces of fleece the same size. Put the 2 pieces together, and cut 4 to 5 inch slits about an inch wide all the way around the fabric. Then tie the top piece to the bottom all the way around, so the 2 pieces of fabric are tied together into one blanket.
