Free Printable Handprint Template.
I love making handprint art with my little boy. They're such a fun and simple kids' craft and make lovely handmade gifts.
You don’t need to be an expert or have a bunch of fancy supplies. All you need is a printer, some cardstock, and a few basic art supplies like a foam brush and some kid-friendly paint.
The printable template makes it easy to turn your child’s handprint into a cute fishing theme craft. Print out the free template ('Dad, you're a catch') and have your child stamp their handprint on the front to make the fish, and voila! You've got a great Father’s Day craft that doubles as a thoughtful gift.
It's a great project to do both at home and in the classroom and an easy DIY project that is perfect for kids of all ages.
