Monster Handprint Craft

If your kiddo loves making messes, being the boss of their own art, and turning their hands into something totally ridiculous… oh friend, do I have the craft for you.
This monster handprint craft is equal parts creative chaos and keepsake magic. You don’t need fancy stuff, just some paper, glue, and your child’s wonderfully weird imagination. These little monsters are perfect for Halloween, monster-themed days, or just because it's Tuesday and everyone needs to glue a tongue on something.
Let’s turn that sweet little handprint into something gloriously goofy!

How to Make Your Monster Handprint Craft

Step 1: Gather Your Supplies
Gather your materials and set them on a flat surface.

Step 2: Cut Out the Pieces
Trace your child’s hand on orange paper and cut it out.
Cut out three orange eye stalks, one black mouth shape, one red tongue, three white eye circles, three smaller black pupils, and a jagged white tooth shape.

Step 3: Add the Eye Stalks
Glue the three eye stalks to the back of the handprint so they stick up like antennas.

Step 4: Make the Mouth
Glue the red tongue onto the black mouth, then add the jagged white teeth above the tongue.

Step 5: Attach the Mouth
Glue the completed mouth shape onto the palm area of the handprint.

Step 6: Add the Eyes
Attach the white eye circles to the top of each eye stalk.

Step 7: Draw the Pupils
Add a black pupil to the center of each white eye circle.
All done!
Your silly monster is ready to “scare” the room!
