Mom works hard and always pulls through. Give her a hand for being so great. We love these handprint crafts for kids Karen Perkins shares.

Moms are always on the go - shuffling kiddies to school and activities, making sure the kitchen is stocked and meals are prepared - give her a break the best way you can. Help with chores! Karen has a super easy coupon book craft for mom that she'll love.
