This handprint flower with flower pot craft is a cute keepsake that is perfect for Mother’s Day or as an ‘I’m thinking of you’ gift. This kids craft is made with your child’s handprint and fingerprints.
This spring kids craft is super simple. I am amazed at how cute it is because it was so easy to make.
I love crafts that my kids make with their handprint and fingerprints. I keep them in a special binder. I love seeing how their hands grow.
The flower stem is made with your child’s handprint and the flowers are made with your child’s fingerprints.
This craft will also make a great “I’m thinking of you card” to mail to loved ones that you haven’t seen in a while. I can also see this being used for birthday cards.
I have included the flowerpot pattern that I used. You can print it for free and use it to make this craft easier. See link below.

Handprint Flower Instructions
Step 1: Print the free flowerpot template (see link below). Then, color and cut out the flowerpot. Or draw and cut out a flowerpot from construction paper.
Step 2: Next, trace your child’s hand on the green construction paper. Then, cut out your child’s handprint. This will be the stem of your flower.
Step 3: Glue the flowerpot on the white paper. Then, glue the handprint at the top of the flowerpot. See picture below..
Step 4: Dip your child’s finger into the washable paint. Press the painted finger at the top of your handprint.
We used yellow and orange fingerprints for the center of the flower and our thumbprints to make the flower petals.
Step 5: Let the paint dry completely. If you want, you can write a message on the flowerpot and your child’s name and date. Enjoy your handprint flower with flowerpot craft.

Ways to Modify This Craft
Instead of cutting out your child’s handprint, you can paint his hand and press it onto the paper.
If you don’t want to use your child’s fingerprints for the flowers, you can always cut out flower shapes from colored paper or use flower stickers.
