DLTK's Holiday Crafts for Kids
Fingerprint Poppy Craft

A thumb, a finger and a bit of paint are all you need to make these super-cute poppies and poppy wreaths.


 

Materials:

  • red finger paint
  • green or black finger paint
  • scrap of cardboard or old margarine container lid (something to act as a pallet)
     
  • paper
     

Directions:

  • Squeeze a bit of red finger paint onto a margarine container lid 
     
  • Squeeze a bit of green/black finger paint onto the lid, spaced away from the red paint (or use a second lid)
     
  • stamp the pad of your thumb into the red paint
     
  • Use your thumb to make 4 poppy petals in a "square" (circle)
      
  • stamp the tip of your index finger into the green/black paint
     
  • Use your index finger to stamp a green or black center into your poppy
     


 

  • You can make a single poppy or continue making fingerprint poppies in a circle to form a poppy wreath.
