Let's make a handprint Santa with thumbprint reindeer and a cute Santa poem! Part of our handprint calendar as the theme for December, this fun idea can be used on kid-made Christmas cards, keepsakes, decoration and more.
Handprint Santa Tutorial:
- Paint entire hand white and press onto paper with fingers pointed toward bottom of paper.
- Add a 2 white finger or thumbprints for eyes.
- Above that, add a red Santa hat (either draw or make from construction paper).
- Add white finger prints going across the length of the hat at the bottom and one at the top.
- Next, add a red nose using index finger.
- Then, make a pink thumbprint on both sides of the nose.
- Using the pinky finger, add a black dot for the mouth & one inside each eye.
- Lastly, add a white dot inside the black part of the eye.
Thumbprint Reindeer:
Make two thumbprints connected so that it looks like a head attached to the body. Add antlers. Draw or Paint Legs. Finish by add facial features.
Santa Poem:
