Handprint Paper Grinch Craft Idea For Kids

It’s a super simple Christmas themed kid craft idea that goes along perfectly with a classic story everyone knows during the holiday season!!! This Paper Handprint Grinch Puppet idea is super easy and sure to melt some hearts as well!!!

No holiday season is complete without the Grinch, Max, Cindy-Lou, and all the residents of Who-ville, in this heartwarming story about the effects of the Christmas spirit on even the smallest and coldest of hearts. Like mistletoe, candy canes, and caroling, the Grinch is a mainstay of the holidays, and his story is the perfect gift for young and old.
