<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nSteps for making the Handprint Lily Craft:<\/h3>\n
We cut our background paper into an oval\/egg shape (since this could double as an Easter craft) but you can keep it simple and leave the paper as is.

<\/p>\nI let the kids color their egg (this step is optional).<\/p>\n
Fold the piece of computer paper into quarters (flashback to school: fold it “hot dog style” then “hamburger style”).<\/p>\n
Trace your child’s hand with fingers spread onto the folded paper and cut it out (you should end up with 4 hand prints).

<\/p>\nRoll each handprint’s palm into a cone (fingers facing up) and tape.

<\/p>\nUse the pencil to curl each finger by wrapping each finger around the pencil and rolling it down to the palm.

<\/p>\nCut strips from the green paper for stems and leaf shapes (optional)

<\/p>\nGlue (or have your child do it if old enough) the hand flowers, stems and leaves onto the background paper.
