Turn your little one’s fingerprints into fridge-worthy art!
This heartfelt craft is perfect for practicing fine motor skills, color mixing, and attention to detail — plus it creates custom magnets that add a personal touch to any space.
Materials:
– Clear glass gems (flat on one side)
– White paper
– Ink pads
– Scissors (adult use only)
– Mod Podge
– Foam brush
– Magnetic strip tape
Instructions:
1. Place a clear glass gem on a sheet of white paper and trace a few circles to match the size.
2. Press your child’s finger into the ink pad, then gently stamp it inside each traced circle. Let the fingerprints dry completely.
3. Use markers to turn the fingerprints into fun little critters like ladybugs, bumblebees, or whatever their imagination dreams up!
4. Using a foam brush, apply a layer of Mod Podge directly onto the paper over each fingerprint design.
5. Gently press a glass gem on top of each Mod Podged design and let it dry completely.
6. Once dry, cut out each gem with the paper backing carefully trimmed to fit.
7. Add a strip of magnetic tape to the back—no hot glue needed!
8. Display your child’s tiny masterpieces on the fridge for a daily dose of creativity and joy!
