Paper Handprint Giraffe - Kid Craft

Handprint Giraffe Keepsake Idea

So who has been watching the giraffe baby watch feed?! Admit it – you are right there with me, waiting for April to have her baby. Am I right? It’s sooooo fun to watch. I seriously can’t wait till she has it.

Anyways – I was “slightly” inspired by April the giraffe and that’s what brought me to sharing today’s Paper Handprint Giraffe kid craft idea! One thing led to another and we had a great handprint paper piece that look exactly like a giraffe!

It’s simply perfect for a zoo themed lesson plan in the classroom or a circus theme at home! Not to mention – it’s also a great keepsake for parents, as well!!!

Ready to make it happen in your home? You can find all simple details in the FULL tutorial below! You just need paper to make it happen! Happy crafting, my friends!!!
