As a teacher, we know that hand and footprint art ideas are LOVED in the classroom. But, there are so many ways that creative parents, grandparents, and childcare providers have used these ides outside of the classroom. Handprints and footprints of our little ones make for awesome DIY hanging art either around the home or in the child’s room. They are also beautiful little keepsakes that we love to save forever. They make fun gifts too!
