If you don’t have a Lowe’s near you, Home Depot has a variety of kits you can buy for your kids to do right now. They usually offer free workshop kits as well, so keep an eye out as it gets closer to Mother’s Day.

You can also buy some DIY flower pot kits online, like this one from Target. It comes with casting mix and a mold so you can make the planter from scratch, plus paint to give it a personal touch.
