Love is something we all need—and it’s free! This gift of love is something any caregiver or family member will treasure.
- First, have children dip a hand in paint. Press it on paper to make a print.
- Next, kids can write a message for the recipient below the handprint.
- Then kids can “frame” the print by gluing it onto a colorful piece of paper.
