Super Cute Mother’s Day Fox Card for Kids

Sharing is caring!

This Mother’s Day Fox Card for Kids is too cute for words! It features a sweet Mama Fox and her little baby cub, locked together in a hug!

We know that mothers will go to any length to protect their children, and we often hear stories that reflect this. One story is about a baby who got stuck in a wire trap for two weeks – but survived because her mother brought her food every single day. 

Yes, that’s a horrible accident for a baby, but the baby here was a fox cub – and her mother was a sprightly vixen who refused to let her baby die! 

Yes, foxes are excellent parents, especially Mama foxes. A female fox stays underground in a den for many months, caring for her pups till they are capable of venturing out into the wild. That’s how dedicated they are!

Vixens have 4-6 cubs at once, usually around spring. Since this is immediately followed by Mother’s Day, we can’t think of a better icon for a Mother’s Day card – which brings us to today’s adorable craft!

5. Foxes use their tails for balance as well as to stay warm. However, the Mama fox of our Mother’s Day fox card uses her tail for another purpose! Get it ready by sticking the tail tip at the pointy end of the tail.
