Give Me A High Five Handprint Father’s Day Card

So one of the first things my husband taught my kids was to high five. My son (age 1.5) calls it a “hi-fye” and he always has to high five both hands. If he is not done high fiving he will grab your hand and turn it over so he continue until he has decided he is done. This is what inspired the Give Me A High Five Father’s Day Card. The card is super simple to make and adorable to give to dad because when he opens it his kid’s hands will spring out of the card when it’s opened just like they are high fiving dad.

Give Me A High Five Handprint Father's Day Card: A fun and cute homemade card for kids to make for Dad and Grandpa. Hands pop-up to give dad a high five when he opens the card.

Give Me A High Five Handprint Father's Day Card: A fun and cute homemade card for kids to make for Dad and Grandpa. Hands pop-up to give dad a high five when he opens the card.

Supplies:
Construction paper
Pen/Markers
Acrylic paint
Paint samples (optional)
Pipe cleaners
Scissors
Tape

Directions:
1.  Fold construction paper to make a blank card large enough to conceal a hand print from each child in your family.

2.  Use acrylic paint and make one hand print for each child. Once they are dry cut them out. I liked to leave a border around the hand print so the color of the paint sample adds some color to the card. If you don’t have paint samples construction paper works great.

 

I LOVE using paint samples for hand prints because you can wash the paint off the paint sample if you need a do-over. Awesome tip, right? 🙂

3.   Write a message on the front of the card: “Just wanted to say…”

4.  Write a message on the inside of the card: “High five to the best dad ever!”

Ms. Tiger colored the inside of the card for daddy and grandpa.

5.  Make a spiral with a pipe cleaner so the hand will pop out of the card. It works best if each hand print has its own pipe cleaner.  Tape the end of the pipe cleaner to the backside of the hand print then attach it to the card. Make sure the hands are placed so they are hidden inside the card. The pipe cleaners are very giving so just bend them where they need to be and your done! 🙂

Add some hand drawn kid artwork to your card. Here are Ms. Tiger’s fireworks for daddy.

  • These little bugs took no time at all to make and are a pretty self-guided craft for kids. Little Tiger finished chopping potatoes while helping me make dinner and found our bags full of lids on the counter (3 bags to be exact–no lid gets left behind in our house :). Before long I looked over and there were 3 bugs staring back at me and no mess in sight! Since the little bugs sitting on my counter make me smile when I look at them I thought you should have some too.
  • This activity helps kids learn to count to 100, introduces them to place values, helps with number recognition and number relationships while allowing them to be actively involved as they learn instead of just staring at a chart with lots of numbers which can be overwhelming.
  • We love stars around here so naturally one of our favorite things that live in the ocean is starfish aka sea stars. They come in all different shapes, sizes, and textures so we have provided you with a free craft template to make a big, medium, and small size starfish craft with your kids. We also show you how to take your craft to the next level by giving it texture and folding it to give it dimension, and if you want you can give it added color with paint. Each one will turn out amazing!
  • When this sunset Tissue Paper Craft is hung in a window it magically seems to glow resembling the beauty of a real sunset on the horizon. No glue or scissor skills are required, so this craft is easy to clean up and perfect for kids of all ages!
  • One of the most beloved children’s authors has to be Dr. Seuss who happens to have a birthday coming up on March 2nd. Did you know he wasn’t technically a doctor?– but that’s okay we still love him anyways! To start celebrating my kids picked out Horton Hears a Who!
  • The set comes in a print-in-color or a color-me (coloring book) version. You can print the set out and assemble it, or extend this activity further by letting your students color their own spinner increasing their recognition of each picture.
