As you may remember, I have 2 frames in my kitchen that my kids put artwork in every season as seen here. We have had our snowmen in there for quite a while and I have been ready for our spring picture. We made rainbows out of their finger prints using stamp pads and then we made a sun using the side of their fist and orange rays using their whole finger. We cut the sun and the rainbow out and pasted it on a blue sheet of paper and glued a few stretched out cotton balls for clouds. Now I am a lot happier to see the spring pictures especially since we had warmer weather this weekend. I am ready for SPRING!!
Supplies needed:
white and blue paper
white and blue paper
cotton balls
glue
ink pads or paint

Wow, so simple and so beautiful. I am doing this NOW. :)
I love this, I think I might do this in my preschool class. What kid what find this fun.
Thank for linking, have a terrific weekend.
That is a sweet project. I love using my kids fingers on projects.
Those are really cool rainbows! the kids did really well at following the pattern! Little Bear's fingerprints would have been all over the paper!
What a fun activity! I love that you display your kids' artwork in frames as decor. I'll have to remember this one.
Love this idea thanks ;) We have been doing rainbows this week too.
We needed more rainbow projects so this is great. He likes any project where is is SUPPOSED TO get his hands and fingers in the paint!

Hi! Just wanted to let you know that I’ve got a new FEATURED BUTTON & will be starting my new MckLinky party TOT TUESDAYS next week. I’d love it if you’d stop by: http://delicious-ambiguity-nennyk.blogspot.com/2010/03/new-buttons-party.html
It is awesome the way they manage to do such a great rainbow like that. It's also impressive that it was made of many fingerprints.
These are BEAUTIFUL!
