How to Make a Handprint-Footprint Reindeer

For babies, simply paint their foot with brown paint using the foam brush. Gently stamp it on the green construction paper. I cut a piece in half since Audrey’s feet are so small. Let it dry and then draw antlers and glue on a red pom-pom nose and googly eyes.

Older kids can add handprint antlers to their reindeer footprint. Make sure to stamp the right hand on the left side of the reindeer’s head and the left hand on the right side so the thumbs won’t overlap. Then let them glue on the nose and eyes.
