This is a great activity for babies, toddlers and preschoolers. It can be adjusted to suit all. For example it’s great to make a hand and foot canvas for a baby’s nursery. Toddlers can have fun painting their own feet and hands and printing onto brightly coloured paper, or green on black paper for scary halloween hands. Preschoolers can cut theirs out and decorate with glitter before putting them on their wall to make a hand and foot trail.

Hand and Foot Printing

You will need;

Newspaper or waterproof play mat (you can buy these at ELC)

Paint and Paintbrush

Brightly coloured card or paper

I used this bumbo seat to sit Erin in while I did the foot painting activity, it’s also great for doing other activities with babies, and for picnics, the beach, feeding etc…
