I wanted to make a turkey hand print craft with Mallory for Thanksgiving, but she just couldn't open her little hands up yet. I made quite a mess trying to get paint into her closed fist! Let's just say I gave up before it turned into a complete disaster. A few weeks have passed and I thought hmm...it might be time to try again. This time I thought a Christmas moose would be cute. We use to make these with the kindergarten kids. A bit of an age difference, but you never know till you try. All you need is paper, paint (washable of course), a foot and both hands. It took us most of the morning but we finally got it done. Of course Mallory wasn't too happy with me by the time we finished! I have to say it turned out pretty cute. I used stamps dipped in paint for Mallory's name and date. For the finishing touches I added some holiday tape (you can pick some up at Michaels or I'm sure any other craft store has it in stock) as a border.
