Graduation season is upon us and today I’m sharing a SIMPLE kid craft idea that can be easily framed and turned into a gift for young kids to gift their parents, grandparents or even teachers!

This Graduation Handprint Owl w/free printable template is super easy to make within minutes and it’s relatively inexpensive too. If you have a printer in your home – you are well on your way to pulling this together and creating a great keepsake to treasure for years to come {plus the finished piece fits nicely in a scrapbook too!}

In this post, I’ve included a FREE gender-neutral owl printable template, so all you need to do is print the file, grab some paint and have your children add their handprints to complete the craft. It’s so simple, you have NO excuse NOT to do it!

Hoot hoot! What are you waiting for? Download the file below and get to work on creating this adorable Handprint Owl. Then place in a beautiful frame or in a scrapbook for the lucky receiver. Whatever you do with it – I hope you enjoy making it with your child!

Happy crafting my friends! #gluedtomycrafts
