This
is easily becoming one of my favorite things to do with Jake. He loves
colors and being creative {yaaaaay!!} so we both have so much fun. And
as he's getting older, he's able to do more and more on his own. Double
the awesome for this crafty momma.
Jake loved this one. He thought getting his hand painted was the best thing ever!!
I
started with a dab of paint on each paper plate. I used a sponge to
cover Jake's hand with the color, then we stamped three hand prints on
each piece of card stock. You can do more or less. I knew we wanted to
make at least two turkeys so that gave us one extra hand print to spare.
While I cleaned up some of the paint, I gave Jake an extra sheet of paper to play with. This kiddo loves the paints.
I
finished out the rest of the turkey myself. I cut around each hand
print. Then made a simple little turkey body with some construction
paper. If you're kiddo is okay with scissors and a glue, he could do
this himself as well!
This is also a great hostess give for wherever you might be traveling for Thanksgiving!
{yes, Mom, that means I'm bringing you one.}
This is a great craft for any time of year. And also one that I think older kids would love.
You start by write your design {or secret message} in white crayon.
I can't wait to start the Christmas crafts next week!!
