FREE PASSOVER Handprint Printable!
Passover Craft Printable
Do you need a fun FREE Passover craft for your kiddos? I got you! I started making my own handprint printables because I could not find a decent Hanukkah handprint craft. The same thing happened when I went to find one for Passover so I made my own! This memorable craft is super simple. For a master tip/hack for getting that perfect handprint keep reading.
For this month’s handprint craft, I did something a little different. I saw a TikTok where they used a Mr. Clean Eraser sheet as a paint pad. I tried it and it worked beautifully! The handprint came out so clean! It was also less messy than painting it on your little one’s hand. Our hands are messy in the video because we decided to try this hack after we had already made a handprint the old-fashioned way.
Directions:
- Tape a Mr. Clean Eraser sheet (it’s the thin version of the sponge) to a piece of cardboard.
These are the ones. I like them better than the thick ones and they last just as long.
2. Paint the Eraser sheet and boom you have a “Paint Pad”!
3. Press your little one’s hand right onto it and then onto a clean sheet of paper or right on the printable. Here is a side-by-side of the difference in print. For the left side, I put paint directly on his hand. On the right side is the Eraser sheet stamp pad print. They both came out great but the DIY stamp pad was way less messy.
After painting, I was able to rinse off the eraser sheet and use it again! Since the paint is washable it came right out! (UPDATE: I have now used that same easer pad for 3 handprint crafts and it is still going strong! The most recent craft I used it on was this FREE Rockin’ Father’s Day Handprint printable.)
4. Then cut out the handprint and use the below gluestick to stick it on the printable. This ensures you get the perfect print and not waste precious printer ink.
GLUE STICKS
Not all glue sticks are created equal. In my 20+plus years of teaching, these are hands down the BEST glue sticks I have ever used and they don’t wrinkle the paper!
5. Once dried, I framed our masterpiece (thank you dollar tree frames) and “Tada!”, we have a beautiful entryway piece for Passover!
Memory Enhancer: Have more than one kid? No problem! There is enough space for more than one handprint!
Memory Enhancer: Remember to put your little one’s name, age, and date on the back. I know it’s one more step but it will be worth it in years to come when you pick it up and recall those tiny hands!
Memory Enhancer: This is a beautiful gift for all the Bubbies in your life! I highly recommend framing it. Then they can bring it out every year for Passover dinner and get all verklempt when they reminisce over their grandbaby’s bitsy little hand.
