Fun Friday: Hand Print Butterfly's!

Hand print Butterfly's

Instructions:

Set out three colors of paint.

Have your toddler paint one hand in multiple colors and make an impression of his hand on a sheet of white paper(fingers open).

Have child wash off his hand, then paint the opposite hand with multiple colors and make an impression of his hand on the same or another sheet of white paper.

When hand impressions are dry, cut them out and glue the two pictures on either side of a large craft stick (or piece of cardboard cut into a large cigar shape) to create a butterfly. Alternatively, leave hand prints on paper and paint a line down the center [as pictured above]. There are so many possibilities!
