Kids Craft – Dandelion Finger Print Wall Art

October 27, by Shellie Wilson. Leave a Comment

Welcome to our Dandelion Fingerprint Wall Art kids craft tutorial! This fun and easy craft is a great way for kids to create a unique piece of art for their own room or as a special gift for a loved one.

In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to make a beautiful dandelion artwork using fingerprints or thumbprints and a template. The fingerprints will be used to create the dandelion seeds, giving the artwork a personal touch. You can use the fingerprints of family members to make a special Mother’s Day gift for mom or a thoughtful class teacher gift.

This craft is perfect for kids of all ages and can be done with simple materials such as paint, paper and a template. It’s a great way to encourage creativity and imagination while also developing fine motor skills. The final product is a beautiful and unique piece of art that will be treasured for years to come.

So gather up your materials and let’s get started on creating a one-of-a-kind dandelion fingerprint wall art. It’s a fun and easy craft that is sure to delight and inspire!

Looking to add a reading activity to this craft project, check out these Dandelion Children’s books.

List of Supplies:

White art paper

Acrylic paint

Template

Instructions:

Step (1)

On a plain white art paper print out the dandelion pattern from the template.

Dandelion Template

Step (2)

Choose the colors for the flower. I prefer more than 3 colors for a bright and fun art! I selected red, green, blue, yellow and orange acrylic paint for this project.

Step (3)

Make sure to place an extra sheet of paper under the canvas paper to protect your workspace. Prepare the paint on a pallet or simply take a small amount of paint on your finger tip; do not smudge the paint all over the finger, try to keep it nice and clean.

Step (4)

Now simply use the paint on your finger tip as ink and your finger as the stamp! Stamp on the black teardrop patterns, one stamp on each. Do not stamp the same color in one area, keep it random.

Step (5)

Once you’re done stamping with one color go for the next. You may keep a damp tissue paper to clean the finger and then go for the next color. Stamp on all the teardrop patterns and also stamp randomly between and outside the patterns.

 

Step (6)

Once you’re done stamping and creating the dandelion flower use black paint to fill the center of the flower.

Try creating more dandelion finger print art using your own pattern and different colors. Have fun!

Have you ever wondered why kids do fingerpainting or in this case Thumb painting? Firstly it helps with their hand/eye coordination and it uses one of the five senses making it the perfect activity for sensory play. Messy play like finger painting is important to every child’s development and it’s a developmental milestone that is starting to be overlooked as more kids turn to technology-based play. physically It strengthens the hand, thumb and fingers which aids with fine motor skills.
