DLTK's Crafts for Kids
USA Handprint Wreath

This handprint wreath is a good choice for memorial day, veteran's day or the 4th of July.

It works equally well as a group or family project (with each person contributing a handprint or two) or a solo craft.
 

Materials:

• glue,
• scissors,
• red, white and blue paint or construction paper.
   

Instructions:

• There are two ways to do this craft.
  • One is to trace the child's hand onto paper and cut out the prints.
  • The second is to make paint handprints on the paper and cut those out.
     
• Make nine handprints (3 of each colour).
   
• Cut out the prints and glue to form a wreath.
   
• Decorate as desired with flags or poppies from the templates provided or your own photos or drawings.
