Handprint Heart Tree Art

This page is for the grown-up, who reads the steps and helps with the paint. Use washable paint, a smock and wipes, wait for the trunk to dry before adding hearts, and use a clean finger for each new color. A grown-up writes the child's name and the date.

One how-to page with a You will need list and 5 numbered steps, plus a picture of the finished tree. Children press a painted hand for the trunk and branches, then press two fingertip dots in a V to make each heart.

Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a Preschool to 1st Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
