Mother's Day, Father's Day, Grandparents' Day, Etc.
I had a horrible time trying to come up with a NAME for this page. Remembrance days didn’t work: that’s more for military days. Honoring days didn’t work: I wasn’t sure if people would get it. Hallmark days was probably my favorite…but it’s not particularly nice.
So, here is our catch-all “days”: mother’s day, father’s day, etc.
Mother's Day: Coloring Pages
This is probably my favorite of the whole batch. Younger kids can color the whole flower. Older kids can get intricate and do the petals in different colors. The same with the words: there are little hearts and flourishes older kids can color, while younger ones can just color the whole letter.

A little less intricate…might be good for younger kids.

This is probably my second most favorite, but that’s because I love the intricate details in the flower bouquet. I might actually print this out, color it, and send it to my own mom. (Yes, I color…it’s fun).

Mother's Day: Cards
Print instructions:
If you have a double-sided printer, just print, making sure the double-sided box is checked.
If you have a single-sided printer, print page one. Then put printed page back in the feed tray, then print side 2. Remember how the feed works depends on the printer, so you may have to flip it around to get it to print correctly!
~~~When you download the pdf, you’ll note the second page is upside down when you view it. This is so it prints correctly. I’ve tested it on my printer, both double-sided and single-sided printing. However, if you printer feeds differently, it may not work. In that case, just print the cover and write whatever you want on the inside.

Father's Day: Coloring Worksheets
These are my absolute favorite thing I’ve done for Mother’s or Father’s Day. Instead of just coloring or just cards, I’ve included some great questions for the kids to answer. You might be surprised at some of the answers you get!
I like this a little bit more than the other one because it has an open coloring space for whatever they want to draw.
It also has questions to answer, my two favorite being “My favorite memory of dad is?” and “I laugh when my dad…”.
You (and Dad!) might be surprised at the creative answers you get.
This one works for slightly older kids…there is less coloring, but more questions to answer.
My particularly favorite questions on this one are “I love to help him with:” and “If I could visit one place with him, it would be:”.
