Handprint Coasters for Kids
you’ll need:
• Green and red tempera paint
• paper plates
• foam brush
• heavy craft paper
• clear contact paper
• small gift tags
Pour enough red paint onto a paper plate to over a hand and a foot of a small child. Repeat this step for the green paint. Taking your foam brush, lightly paint one child’s hands with paint.

After covered, place hand onto heavy craft paper for a hand print. Alternating colors, repeat this step for remaining hand and both feet. When paint is dry, write child’s name and date on them.

Cover with clear contact paper and trim them in a circular shape around prints. On a small gift tag, attach the following poem:
“I know my hands are little and sometimes make a mess,
So I’ve made for your some coasters to give your drinks a rest.
Now Merry Christmas, Mom and Dad (or whomever),
It’s kind of funny, can’t you see?
Now I’ll be helping you, by putting the mess on me!”
