4th Of July Craft: Hand Print Fireworks
Capture your kid's hand print forever with this art that pays tribute to the July 4th holiday.
Hand print crafts are win-win: you can capture kids' hand prints as a precious keepsake, plus kids love having their palms painted! In honor of the July 4th holiday, pair your kid's hand print with a fun fireworks painting that you and your kid can craft together.
What you'll need:

Instructions:
1. Paint fireworks onto the white cardstock using the red and blue acrylic paint. There's no right or wrong way to do this, so let kids have fun with it.

2. Use silver glitter glue to add a few sparkles to the fireworks. Kids can apply the fireworks directly onto the paper by squeezing the bottle, or you can add some glitter glue to a small container and have them use a paintbrush.
3. Allow the paint to dry.
4. Using the paintbrush, paint your kid's palm and fingers with either red or blue paint.
5. Immediately have your kid firmly plant their hand in the center of the firework display.
6. Allow the paint to dry, then proudly display your kid's art!
