Celebrate the people who care for us with Happy Mother’s Day from the Crayons, a funny and affectionate story featuring the characters from The Day the Crayons Quit. This time, the crayons have plenty to say about their mums and the other important mother figures in their lives.
Red Crayon loves his mum because she works extra hard, especially during the holidays. Yellow and Orange celebrate their grandma, who has been like a mum to them. White Crayon loves his mum very much, even when he can’t always see her.
Together, their stories create an inclusive celebration of different families, recognising that love and care can come from more than one person or relationship. The crayons’ individual perspectives bring humour and tenderness to a familiar occasion, giving families something lovely to share on Mother’s Day.
Read together and invite your child to talk about the people they would like to celebrate. The story offers a starting point for making a card, drawing a picture or sharing a favourite memory with someone special.
Whether chosen for a family bookshelf or given alongside a handwritten message, Happy Mother’s Day from the Crayons is a thoughtful way to mark the occasion. It’s a cheerful reminder of the many reasons children love their mums, grandmas and mother figures.
