Gifts to make together

Show your child what a little petal he is by turning him into a flower baby.

What you need:

• A clip frame
• Flower petals (real or silk)
• A picture of your little one
• Coloured card or paper
• Glitter pens
• PVA glue

What to do:

1. Cut the piece of coloured card into rectangle the same size as the frame.
2. Cut around the picture of your child's face to make the centre of the flower and glue it to the card.
3. If you are using real flower petals, press them a couple of days before by placing them flat between two pieces of kitchen paper in the middle of a heavy book.
4. Glue the petals in a circle around your baby's face to make the flower.
5. Draw on the stem and flower pot with glitter pens or felt tips.
6. When dry, place the glass over the frame and clip into place.
7. Hang in pride of place and add a new one each year as your little flower grows.
