This is a fantastic and easy handprint canvas craft idea for kids. 

We really do love Dr Seuss and I’ve had a whole array of fun Dr Seuss Craft ideas here on The Inspiration Edit. Did you see our Lorax Puppet and our Thing 1 Thing 2 Story spoons? They are ace. We even have a Cat In The Hat Rock Stone.

 

Anyhow today we have another fun and exciting idea which the kids will love.

It’s a Thing 1 and Thing 2 handprint canvas. This is easy to do and even the smallest of kiddies will love it. I hope you love it.

How to Make Dr Seuss Handprint Art

Download and print The Thing 1 and Thing 2 logos.

Use the scissors to cut out the logos and set them aside.

Paint the palm of your child’s hand with white paint and paint their fingers with teal paint.

Help your child press their hand down onto the canvas.

Carefully pull up their hand to avoid smearing the paint.

Wash your child’s hand and dry it off completely.

Paint your child’s entire hand with red paint.

Help your child press their hand down onto the canvas just below the white and teal handprint.

Make sure to point their handprint the opposite way.

Allow the paint to dry completely and don’t forget to wash your child’s hand! (yikes, what a mess that would be)

Draw a face on the canvas with pencil. Trace the pencil with permanent marker.

Use a glue stick to glue the Thing 1 and Thing 2 logos on.

Your Dr Seuss themed canvas is now complete!
