Handprint Sombrero Cinco de Mayo Craft

We made handprint sombreros as a Cinco de Mayo craft this past weekend!

How to make a Handprint Sombrero Craft for Cinco de Mayo

Handprint sombrero I made with my 16 month old.

The kids decided which hand they wanted painted and then made a handprint in the center of the page a little bit more toward the top.

Next, paint a rim around each of their handprints. As I was looking at one of them, I thought about how cute it would look if the rim was a footprint instead. My little ones love painting their feet even more than their hands so I am a little mad at myself for not thinking about it sooner. Next year we will have to make this craft again with the footprint!

I drew a little design on each as well as the outline of a sombrero.
