Reindeer prints

No matter the size of the hands or feet, your Christmas card is going to be one of the clearly remembered and held on to for an eternity because your child's digits will be on display. There will be a little mess with this one because you will be painting with your hands and feet but the end results will be priceless.

This card is the perfect way to say you love them 'Deerly'! 

You will need: 

• Brown, red and white water based paint 
• Paint bruses or sponges
• Coloured cardstock
• Scissors
• Child's (or your own) hands and feet
• Decorative pens
• Googly eyes
• Stapler

Instructions:

Get it together

Gather your materials
 

Put one foot forward

Brush or sponge paint onto one foot and press onto light brown cardstock. 
 

Shake hands with a paint brush

Brush or sponge white paint onto both hands and press onto dark brown cardstock.
 

Wash up and grab the scissors

Once you have washed up and allowed paint to dry, cut out around the prints.


 

Stick it together

With the heel as the nose, staple hands onto the toe end of your printed and cut foot. The hands will be the antlers, so staple off to the sides.
 

Decorate it up

Paint on a red nose and decorate with googly eyes. When everything is dry, turn over and write your final message
