Mother's Day is just a week away, and I have six awesome ideas for you to help your preschooler make!  Dads, pay attention!  These can easily be adapted for a grandma or teacher, too!   First of all, is this necklace made from clay beads.  My daughter made this for me when she was three, and it has been very popular ever since!  Just follow the directions for oven-baked clay from your craft store!  And buy the colored clay if you don't want to paint it too!
