The short answer
A great gift for mom from the kids is a personalized trading card of them, with each kid's message behind the card's QR code. A Display Card in a case is $29.99; a 10-card Pack ($49.99) gives every kid their own card. Behind each card's QR code: a note, a drawing, or a video link, added after you order.
Ideas moms actually keep
A card of each kid
Her favorite people, on cards she'll keep on the shelf. A 10-card Pack covers every kid in one order, each with their own photo and details.
A card of Mom, made by the kids
The coach, the chef, the one who knows where everything is: the kids pick the photo and write her "stats".
Each kid's message behind it
A note, a drawing, or a short video of the kids saying why she's the best, behind each card's QR code.
From a toddler
A card of the little one, with a video of their first "I love you, Mommy" linked behind it.

What's a good Christmas gift for mom from kids?+

How do young kids add a message?+
Record a short video or voice memo on a phone, upload it to YouTube, Vimeo, or SoundCloud, and add the link to the card's page. Drawings can be added as photos with a caption.
What goes behind the QR code?+
Every Cardbop card is a Living Card: the QR code printed on the back opens a page that belongs to that card. You can add the story behind it, more photos from that day, links (a highlight video, a playlist, a shared album), and a note the person who gets it finds when they scan it. Only people with the card or its link can open the page, and the owner can make it private. The printed code never changes, so the page can be updated any time.
How much does it cost?+
A single Display Card in a case is $29.99 and a 10-card Card Pack is $49.99. The page behind each QR code is included with every card. Designing is free.
