Now that the school holidays are well under way we have been doing lots of art and crafts, including the ever faithful hand printing! Hand printing always goes down well and is pretty versatile. We decided to make some hand print fish pictures the other day as a nod to the summer!
You will need – paper, paint, crepe paper, card and glue.
Begin by painting your hand in whichever colour you like. My kids chose to do multi coloured stripes like a rainbow!
Print down onto your paper.
Leave your prints to dry, then turn them into fish by adding a mouth and eyes.
Then cut out your fish and stick them down onto some card. We also added green crepe paper seaweed and blue bubbles!
The kids loved their finished hand print pictures! You could also add glitter and other sea creatures! A fab, simple art activity for the summer holidays!
We hope you all have a very crafty, fun filled week!
This is so lovely! My girls would love this! We might get our paints out this afternoon! 😀
