Grandparents Day is the perfect time to show a little extra love to the special grandparents in your life. While store-bought cards are always sweet, there’s something truly heartwarming about a homemade creation—especially one made with little hands. A thumbprint flower card is a fun, easy, and sentimental craft that kids can make to give their grandparents a keepsake they’ll treasure forever.

Since my son was born almost 2 years ago, I’ve made handprint or footprint cards for loved ones on every holiday. My sister makes jokes that I don’t have to buy a greeting card ever again.
