Kids' Fall Tree

Fall Handprint Tree

What you will need:
yellow paint
orange paint
red paint
brown paint
paintbrushes
x-long white construction paper

Step 1:
Paint a brown tree trunk on the white construction paper.
Step 2:
Paint your child's hand yellow, orange, and red. Don't worry if the paint mixes, it turns out even prettier!
Step 3:
Place handprints at the top of the tree trunk to form the leaves of the tree. Be sure to re-paint every time you make more leaves.
Result: Very happy kiddos!

Tip:
Do not attempt to paint these while wearing a cream J. Crew cardi.

  1. That is an adorable idea!!! I'm going to pass this along to my Junior LEague friends in Beaufort who are working with children in a shelter and are always looking for new and fun ideas. Thanks for sharing!
