Handprint Campfire Keepsake

Handprint Campfire Keepsake

Little hands love to make and leave their mark on everything. Today’s camping craft idea is so easy that your child will have a blast doing it!

Craft Supplies:

  • White Cardstock Paper
  • Red Craft Paint
  • Orange Craft Paint
  • Brown Craft Paint
  • Small Paper Plate
  • Paint Brushes
  • Baby Wipes
  • Jumbo Craft Stick
  • School Glue or Glue Stick
  • White Cotton Balls
  • Scissors

Directions:

  • First are the painted handprints that look like “flames” on a log.
  • To do this simply pick one of your child’s hand and paint the palm & fingers with the craft paint.
  • Press the painted handprint on the cardstock paper, right in the middle of the page.
  • Repeat this step, if desired, to make multiple handprint flames.
  • Clean off excess craft paint from hands with baby wipes and a quick trip to the sink.
  • Next grab your brown paint and paint some “firewood logs” underneath the frames.
  • To finish off the handprint bonfire keepsake – glue your jumbo popsicle “stick” onto the design, along with the cotton balls to give the look of someone roasting marshmallows.
  • Then let it all dry completely before displaying proudly!
  • You can also write happy camper somewhere on the keepsake, with a Sharpie marker {hint hint!}

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!
