Step 1
Consider what type of present your wife would like. Does she want jewelry? Does she want a family portrait? Would she prefer a special framed drawing of the family that your child did? Whatever the gift is, make it symbolic of her being a mother.

Step 2
Have your child make a handmade card. It has much more meaning behind it then buying a store bought card.Help them write a note inside telling them how special they think their mom is.

Step 3
You can choose to make a special wrapping paper from your kids. Get a basic color or flowered wrapping paper. Cut it enough so that you can wrap the gift and flip it over so that the white part of the wrapping paper shows. Have your kids draw their own special art work on it. If you're brave you can have them dip their hands in non-toxic child safe paint and put their handprints all over it. Now when you wrap thee gift, the flowered or basic color of the paper will be on the inside and seen when she unwraps the gift. The special artwork your kids drew on the opposite side will be visible.

Step 4
Be there to help your kids present her with the gift.
