Directions:

  • Quickly paint the your palm of child’s hand {or foot} and make prints on the construction paper. {I say quickly, because the paint might dry on their skin fast – making the prints not come out right} Also make sure to leave room between each print so you can cut it out.
  • Once you are done making your handprint/footprints – set aside to let them dry completely.
  • Paint your clothespins completely green. Set them aside to allow them to dry completely.
  • Next up -cut out your child’s green handprints from the paper. Add a message to the back of the cutout for a special touch.
  • Stuff your goodie bags with your favorite party treats. Think small trinkets, candy, maybe even a stuffed friend!
  • Fold the top of the bag down and secure with one handprint, clothespin and some raffia for a decorative look.
  • Then gift your Handprint Pumpkin Gift Bags away proudly!

And there you have it!  You have little gift bags that look like little pumpkins! Super cute, right?!

Now I’m not pushing the crafting envelope on this one BUT if you can’t find gift bags that are orange already – you can purchase white/brown lunch sacks and paint them orange instead.

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
