Handprint Ghost Craft
There are several ways you could create handprint art. You don’t necessarily need a template, but it truly helps when the kids need a guide for where to place the hand art.
Make your own handprint craft art
This is a fun and easy way to get your kids involved in the holiday, and it helps them remember the fun they had with you.
1. Gather a few supplies:
– Paper towels or old sheets
– Paint (red, orange, yellow)
– Paintbrushes
– Black paint pen or black acrylic paint
– Scissors
2. Draw a handprint design on the paper towel or sheet – you can find some great templates online. Cut out your handprint design so that it fits on your child’s hand when they make their own handprint.
3. Have your child put their hands in red paint and press them onto the paper towel or sheet in the shape of their hands. Let them dry for 5 minutes before taking off the paper towel.
Using templates to create the handprint art makes it much more fun!
When kids see the face on the template and then the design, they could create their own funny looking ghost.
They don’t need to follow a particular design.
