My toddler loved being a paint brush. We counted "One, two, three!" and put his hand on the paper on "three." After that he skipped straight to "three" and kept trying to hit the paper

Description

My toddler loved being a paint brush. We counted "One, two, three!" and put his hand on the paper on "three." After that he skipped straight to "three" and kept trying to hit the paper

Instructions

1. Using the red acrylic, paint your child's thumb and the bottom 1/3 of their palm.

2. Using the brown (or your child's skin color) acrylic, paint the middle of your child's hand.

3. Using the white acrylic, paint your child's fingers and the area just above their fingers.

4. Place your child's painted hand on the paper and remove to reveal Santa

5. After the paint drys, go back and add the white edge and tip of Santa's hat. Use a black sharpie for the eyes and a small drop of red paint for the nose (I used the tip of an insence stick to apply the nose)
