Great Christmas idea!

  • Buy either poster board, construction paper or a stretched canvas frame.
  • Buy finger paints. And squeeze the paint out and place your child’s foot and hand in the paint then onto the paper. 
  • If you have multiple kids do a hand of one child a foot of the other and so on. 
  • There are many saying you can stencil onto the picture. 

My favorite is:

Sometimes I might upset you

Because I am so small

And always leave my fingerprints on furniture and walls.

But everyday I grow a bit

And soon I'll be so tall

That all those little fingerprints

Will be so hard to recall.

So here's a special handprint

Just so that you can say

This is how my fingers looked

When I placed them here today (When I placed them here this Christmas Day 2012)
