A Kids Fingerprint Craft Perfect for Mother’s Day!

What’s every mom’s favorite gift for Mother’s Day?  A kids fingerprint or handprint craft, of course!  These cute kids fingerprint magnets were made awesome with some colorful Apple Barrel paint and washable Mod Podge Washout for Kids.  Check it out…Kids Fingerprint Flower Magnets perfect for Mother's Day from B-InspiredMama.com

This post is sponsored by Apple Barrel & Mod Podge. Please see my disclosure policy.

Kids Fingerprint Flower Magnets

Supplies:

  • Apple Barrel Acrylic Craft Paint
  • paint brushes
  • wooden squares and/or circles
  • ink pads
  • Mod Podge Washout for Kids
  • metal magnetic clips and/or small round magnets
  • quick dry craft glue

Supplies for a Kids Fingerprint Magnet Craft Perfect for Mother's Day at B-InspiredMama.com.com

Steps:

  1. Have the kids help paint one side of the wooden shapes with Apple Barrel paint.  Let dry. Flip over and paint the other side.  Let dry.  (This paint is so good; it only took us one coat for each side!)
  2. Have the kids use the ink pads to make their fingerprints on the painted wooden shapes.  Let dry.
  3. Use the back of a paint brush and the Apple Barrel paint to add colorful dot flower petals, leaves, and a stem to transform each fingerprint into a colorful flower.  Let dry.
  4. Have the kids help seal the wooden shapes by painting on one coat of Mod Podge Washout for Kids.  (Yep, let them help; it’s WASHABLE!)  Let dry.
  5. Use the quick dry glue to adhere the wooden shapes to the magnet clips and/or round magnets.  Let dry over night.
  6. Gift to mom for Mother’s Day with a love note clipped in!

Priscilla Making Kids Fingerprint Magnets for Mother's Day at B-InspiredMama.com

Priscilla loved the bright Spring colors of the Apple Barrel paint.  And I loved how it only took one quick coat to make bright magnets.  And the Mod Podge Washout rocks because it’s completely kid-safe and washable!  So Priscilla could help with nearly all of this project.    You can find Apple Barrel Paints and Mod Podge Washout at Michael’s if you’d like to try it.

    Where did you find the metal magnetic clips? I went to Michael’s and they didn’t sell those. Are they from an office supply store?

      Yes – I do think I got them from Office Depot or maybe even Target?

    I’m new to teaching and am wondering… where do you find little wooden shapes like that? Also at Michael’s or Hobby Lobby?

    Thanks — Heather

    Awww….yours turned out super cute too! I like all the colors. Maybe when the kids are older we will try with paint rather then a stamp pad! lol
