Mother’s Day is coming and I’ve got a FREE “Happy Mother’s Day” printable that fits perfectly on mints. There are five different floral designs with “Happy Mother’s Day” on each one.
(THIS POST PROBABLY CONTAINS AFFILIATE LINKS. OUR FULL DISCLOSURE POLICY IS REALLY BORING, BUT YOU CAN FIND IT HERE.)
I made this printable because I currently work at a restaurant as a server and Mother’s Day is one of our busiest days of the year. I love giving things to people and making them feel special so I came up with the idea to make these mints for all of our guests!
These Mother’s Day mints would also be perfect for any office setting or doctor’s office, church get-togethers, gift baskets, libraries, restaurants… I can go on and on! It is a very universal and simple gift that most people would appreciate.
How to make the Mother’s Day mints
It’s super simple… Download, print, cut, and stick!
You’ll want to use sticker paper (this is the kind I use) to make this as easy as possible. The design also has guidelines on it to take the guess work out of the cutting.
I like to get the big tub of soft peppermints from Walmart (They’re perfect for smashing up and mixing with lemon and hot water when I’ve got a sore throat!), but you can use any individually wrapped peppermints that will fit this Mother’s Day mint design. The stickers are 1″ x 1.5″.

A scavenger hunt can be a fun and exciting way to add some adventure to a child’s birthday party. Kids love exploring and discovering new things, so a scavenger hunt is a great way to engage them in a game that is both challenging and entertaining.
In this blog post, we’ll explore how to create a birthday party scavenger hunt for kids that will keep them engaged and excited throughout the party.

Step 1: Choose a Theme
The first step in creating a birthday party scavenger hunt is to choose a theme.
The theme could be anything from pirates to superheroes to unicorns.
Whatever theme you choose, make sure it is something that the birthday child and their friends will be excited about.
Step 2: Plan the Clues
Once you have decided on the theme, you can start creating the clues.
The clues should be age-appropriate and easy for little kids to understand. You can create clues that are written or visual, depending on the age of the children. For younger kids, you may want to use pictures or symbols instead of words.
For example, if your scavenger hunt theme is pirates, the first clue could be “X marks the spot where the treasure is buried.” The clue could lead the kids to a sandbox or a designated area where the next clue is hidden. The next clue could be “Look for a skull and crossbones flag.” The kids would then search for a flag with a skull and crossbones on it, and the clue could be hidden underneath.
Once you have planned the clues, it’s time to hide them.
Make sure the clues are hidden in places that are easy for kids to find but not too obvious.
You don’t want the game to be too easy, but you also don’t want the kids to get frustrated.
Step 4: Provide Prizes
Kids love prizes, so make sure you have a few small prizes for the kids who complete the scavenger hunt. The prizes could be anything from candy to stickers to small toys.

Step 5: Set the Rules
Before the scavenger hunt begins, make sure you explain the rules to the kids.
Let them know how many clues there are and how long they have to complete the game.
You may also want to have an adult accompany each group of kids to ensure that they stay safe and on track.
Step 6: Play the Game
Once everything is set up, it’s time to play the game!
Divide the kids into teams and give each team a clue to start with. Make sure the teams are evenly matched and have an equal chance of finding all the clues.
The team that finds all the clues first wins!
Other Scavenger Hunt Options
Alternatively, you can buy a scavenger hunt game that is ready to go!
Amazon has a few cool options, but this one is my favorite! The best part about this game is that the cards are easily reusable and you can pull it out all year long!
Creating a birthday party scavenger hunt for kids is a great way to add some excitement and adventure to a birthday party.
With a little planning and preparation, you can create a game that the kids will remember for years to come. So why not give it a try at your next birthday party!
