To make the Footprint Tractor:
I used circles from various items around the house to get a good circle drawn for each of the tires. I looked at tractor images on the web for inspiration. For the baby thumbprint chicks, I used my son's thumbs dipped in yellow paint. After it dried, I drew details and added the phrase "Little Deere" and the words to the Old MacDonald song. For the grass, I painted a solid green. When it dried, I used colored pencils in 4 different shades of green to make it look more interesting.

I have other farm designs as well. Click the word of the item you would like to see: pig footprint and handprint chicken, handprint baby chick, pig, chicken and pig, cow and duck

I love this idea...my in-laws are farmers, and happen to be John Deere fans. I can't wait to make a personalized picture for them from my 2yr old! I love making my child's art into placemats (using my extra 12x12 scrapbook paper and having them laminated at my local office supply store). Thanks for the tractor creative idea!! Keep them coming!
