Make a rainy day Sunshine Jar!

What you need:

  • An empty jar (or any small container)

  • A handful of colorful paper scraps (or post-its)

  • A pen or crayons

  • Stickers or ribbons for decorating

How to make it:

  1. Decorate the jar: Wrap a ribbon around the rim, stick on a few cheerful stickers, or draw little suns and hearts on the glass. Make it bright and happy—just like your smile!

  2. Write sunshine notes: On each paper scrap, write (or draw) something that makes you and your mum happy together. Examples:

    • “Remember our tickle-giggle fights?”

    • “You bake the yummiest cookies!”

    • A tiny heart or rainbow drawing

  3. Fill it up: Fold each note and pop it into the jar until it’s full of sunshine.

  4. Share on a rainy day: When the raindrops tap at the window, present the jar to your mum and say, “Whenever you feel gloomy, pull out a note and remember how much I love you!”

Why it works:

  • Brightens her mood: Pulling out a sweet memory or compliment is like catching a little ray of sunshine.

  • Keeps you connected: Every time she reads a note, she’ll think of you—and that makes both of you smile.

  • Easy and fun: Making it together (or surprising her with it) turns a dull, wet day into a warm, loving moment.
