When my children were infants, we document little foot prints throughout their first year of life. However, they may be older, but with this craft, I wanted to do that again with my boys with canvas and paint. Plus, since it’s close to St. Patrick’s Day, we added a little luck to it!
We made and/or “attempted” to make four leaf clovers on a canvas. I got my oldest child’s fingerprints on this canvas. It was very easy, and he really enjoyed it.
Supplies:
Directions:
- Make fingerprint 4-leaf clovers.
- Use your fingers or a paintbrush to paint a rainbow.
Anytime you are doing a craft with an actual child it’s not going to be perfect. It’s definitely an original. I am actually hoping to start doing more of these canvases. There’s nothing like getting a child’s perspective by handing them paint and a canvas and just say, “paint me a picture.” We hope you have a Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
