Easy Crafts for Kids: Hand Print Leprechaun

Another one of those St. Patrick’s Day themed easy crafts for kids! This one’s a little messy — but the trade off is it doesn’t take too many supplies and it couldn’t be easier to produce. Remember tracing your hand to make a little turkey? It’s nothing like that! Except for the fact that their hands are the main part of this fun craft – but this isn’t some easy turkey trace, this is fun hand painting.

Orange paint
Peach colored paint
Paint brushes
Paper
Green and black craft foam
Scissors

Yellow button
Sharpie or black marker

Cut a hat out of the green craft foam and a stripe for the hat out of the black foam.
Have your kids glue the hat and stripe on their little leprechaun.
