Activity Days: More Mom and Me Printables–Cupcake Wrappers, Treat Toppers and Flags

Published on March 12, 2012January 3, 2013 by neishaLeave a comment

Here are the latest in my Activity Days: Mom&Me series of printables: cupcake wrappers, treat-bag toppers and flags! Use these printables, plus my other Activity Days Mom&Me invitations (photo and candy-bars) and photo frames to give your girls and their mothers a memorable time together at your next activity! You can find the download links to my files at the end of this article.

Flags: Make an adorable string of bunting flags using my easy-to-print .pdf file or four high-quality .jpeg files. My flags fit perfectly on a standard 8.5-by-11-inch piece of paper or cardstock. Print, cut and assemble!

I put together my string of bunting flags by folding the top 1/2-inch of each flag towards the back, hanging the folded flag on a length of string and then gluing down the flap. You can also hang individual flags around the room or sew them onto a length of ribbon using a sewing machine and long, straight stitch.

Cupcake Wrappers: Use my cupcake wrappers to dress-up cupcakes for a fun and delicious Mom&Me activity treat!

Or, have your girls make and decorate cupcakes to serve to their mothers at your Mom&Me. Print, cut and wrap my wrappers around frosted, decorated cupcakes. Then, secure the wrappers in back with tape or glue.

Treat Bag Toppers: Finally, today I have some adorable Activity Days: Mom&Me treat bag toppers for you!

Designed to fit sandwich or snack-sized zip-top bags, these five-by-seven-inch (2.5-by-seven-inches when folded) treat bag toppers will help you create a playful favor for your next mother-daughter activity. The front features my Activity Days: Mom&Me logo, the words Sweet Treats and the quote Together is a wonderful place to be!

On the back, I’ve included the Primary Theme as well as a Mom and Me barcode! Simply print, cut, fold and secure these treat toppers with staples or double-sided tape to your own treat bags.

I hope these Activity Days printables help make your next Mom and Me get-together perfect–and EASY! I have a few more printables coming in this series, so be sure to follow this blog or like Hang a Ribbon on the Moon on Facebook so you don’t miss a download or post.

Here’s the latest in my series of designs for your next Activity Days Mom&Me activity: a couple of photo frames. They’re designed to dress up your own snapshots and create adorable photo gifts for your Activity Days girls.

During your next Mom and Me event, snap photos of the girls with their moms. Then, after the day is over, combine my two 4×6-inch photo frames in .png format with your pictures. My frames are designed for you to place over your photos using your photo-editing software. (The center portion of the frames is transparent.) Add date information, if you want, then, save your newly framed photos as high-quality .jpeg files. Finally, upload them to your favorite photo printer and have them printed as inexpensive 4×6-inch photos.

Your girls and their mothers will love these wonderful keepsakes of their time together!

Activity Days: Mom & Me Printable Invitations (1.55-ounce Candy Bar Wrapper)

Published on February 6, 2012January 3, 2013 by neishaLeave a comment

When I was an Activity Days leader, some of the most successful activities we had were “Mom & Me” activities. Sometimes we did them in conjunction with a Recognition Activity, but we also did them as stand-alone activities. Have you considered having one of these for your Activity Days girls? Why not! And to get you started, I thought I’d share a cute printable I’ve designed to be used as an invitation to an Activity Days Mom & Me activity.

As you can see, it involves one of my favorite snacks, chocolate! It’s a candy-bar wrapper invitation!

Designed to fit the standard 1.55-ounce Hershey’s chocolate bar (and other similar-sized candy bars), my wrapper features “You’re invitied!” on the front and space to add your details on the back as well as an “ingredients” list with the Primary theme and a “Nutrition Facts” box changed to an “Activity Days Facts” box with all kinds of references to the Faith in God for Girls program and its requirements. Here’s a closer look:

I’ve included two versions of the candy bar wrapper in my download:

a high-quality .jpeg file, ready to edit in your favorite software and print (or print out first and then add handwritten details yourself)

an interactive .pdf file, with text fields where you can add your information once you’ve opened the file in Adobe Reader. You cannot save the text you add, but using an interactive .pdf is a quick and easy way to add your individual details to the wrapper. Adobe Reader can be found here for free and most people already have it installed on their computers.

Over the next while, I will have more Activity Days Mom&Me printables including posters, cupcake wrappers and a photo frame and more plus a few ideas on Mom & Me activities you might consider doing for your next Activity Days event. Don’t worry, I also have some Young Women’s printables coming as well. Don’t miss a post by following to this blog or liking Hang a Ribbon on the Moon on Facebook. I love my followers!
