Guest Post: Handprint Frog

GUEST POST: LEARN CREATE LOVE

 

Before we know it, our backyard pond will be filled with tadpoles that turn into noisy bullfrogs that serenade us with their loud croaks all summer. I’m so excited to be sharing this adorable and fun handprint frog craft here on CraftProjectIdeas.com! We do a lot of handprint crafts at LearnCreateLove.com and both of my kids (ages 10 and 2) love them. This craft uses the whole hand, though you will need to alter the fingertips with a paintbrush to give the froggie his own toes. Like all handprint crafts, this one requires only a few craft materials:

Materials



Paint: Green & Red
Paintbrushes
Wiggly Eyes

Paper Plate or Cardstock Paper

Glue

Marker to draw the flies (optional)
