For children early age drawing with fingers and palms is the most accessible. After all, it is still quite difficult for them to cope with a brush, pencil or felt-tip pen. And then - slap - and the print is ready! And then the parents or teacher will help turn a simple print into a hedgehog, tree, flower, elephant, fish, bird. Children love to observe or participate as much as possible in such transformations of prints into objects familiar to them.
Besides the pleasure in hand painting There are also developmental benefits to using your fingers. This is both an enrichment of tactile experience and an acquaintance with colors and the properties of paints.
Undoubtedly, the transformations of prints also influence the development of children’s imagination and imagination.
Now in sale there are special paints for finger painting. For our inquisitive parents, we found using Internet resources and homemade paint recipe drawing with palms and fingers :
0.5 kg flour
5 tbsp. spoons of salt
2 tbsp. spoons of vegetable oil
water - until the consistency of thick sour cream. Mix all this with a mixer, then pour the resulting mass into separate jars, add food coloring (beetroot or carrot juice, as an option - Easter sets, mix until smooth.
With the children of our group (1st junior group) We painted V joint activities. An exhibition of works by our students, “Colorful palms".
Here's what we got:
Good afternoon, today I am uploading a full a selection of articles with ideas for hand drawings. Palm painting can be a fun way to create images quickly and easily. Children really like this technique because it does not require serious artistic skills from them. We will draw in unconventional technology - using children's handprints on paper. Regular gouache paints and the palms of your little ones will help you create paintings depicting a wide variety of characters. Even the smallest children will be able to draw a fish, a bunny, a chicken with their palms. These ideas are suitable for choosing crafts for an activity in kindergarten– by drawing or appliqué.
Our article will begin with a package of hand drawings with birds, with a variety of birds, from chickens to peacocks with gorgeous tails. A beautiful, unconventional imprinting technique can turn a child’s palm into any bird. This idea would be suitable for a lesson in non-traditional drawing techniques.
To make a chicken out of your palm, you need to draw a comb, beard and beak along the edge of the thumbprint. Add the outline of the wing - and the picture of the palm is ready.
And for the rooster, use gouache and a brush (or colored markers) to draw multi-colored arcs of feathers, you will get a bright rooster tail. Drawing a tail is exciting activity which can be done with your fingers (children enjoy drawing with their hands).
Or you can paint your palm in one neutral color in advance, and each finger in a new bright gouache color. And then it turns out that the arched multi-colored fingers are the tail of the rooster in the picture.
Palm painting provides a lot of creative options for children's drawings. You just need to look closely at the print and understand what your bright palms look like.
You can draw a duck in the same way. Here you need to close your fingers together when making palm prints, because the duck’s tail is neat, gathered in a bunch. And draw on the end of the thumb oval shape, this will be the head. We finish drawing the eye, duck beak and legs.
In the same way, you can make a drawing of a peacock bird from a palm print. Each finger needs to be supplemented with elements already drawn on the dried paint. Outline feather hairs and peacock eyes at the end of the finger (as done in the picture below). A black marker or felt-tip pen works great on dry paint.
You can paint your hand in different colors - the body of the bird is green, the first phalanx of the finger is covered with blue, and the second phalanx is blue, the third is purple. And we immediately get a colorful, beautiful bird using the “palm painting” technique.
You can place your palm on a sheet of paper several times and get a drawing with a fluffy peacock tail. You can add bright colors with your fingers yellow spots on peacock feathers. Next, when the paint has dried, we cut out the silhouette of the bird’s body and glue it to the center of our handprint. Let's complete the craft-drawing by gluing the eyes, beak and paws.
An adult palm with closed fingers can become the source for the craft drawing with a peacock below. The base of the palm continues with the outline of the bird's chest and neck. Around the fingerprint we add swirls of feathers and a peacock eye pattern.
A drawing with DOVE paints can also be created using the handprint technique. Here you need to spread your fingers as far apart as possible and spread the paint thicker. The center of the palm has a depression that will not be imprinted on the paper - we simply paint over this unpainted area on the print with a brush. TO thumb hands add a beak, an eye and a green sprig of peace. Simple topic for notes open class on the topic CHILD AND SOCIETY.
Here's another great idea - drawing with your palms combine HANDS AND FOES PRINTS together. As we see in the photo below, this drawing involves a footprint (the body of a cockatoo) and handprints (the bright plumage of a Brazilian bird). The curved beak can be completed or cut out of colored paper.
A bright red handprint can easily be added to a flamingo with a long, curved neck. The curve of the neck can be drawn with your fingers, since we are not using a brush.
Red bullfinch birds are also a great craft for children. On winter branches, red winter birds look like New Year card with your own hands. We tint the background of the paper blue in advance (using a thick blush brush and water colored with gouache).
Bullfinches are obtained if the palm (with closed fingers) is placed horizontally on the branch. And if the handprint is made vertically - across the branch - then we will get the outline of an owl. We wait for the paint to dry, then glue on two round paper eyes. Using our fingers, we draw green leaves on the branch and a yellow beak and paws on the hair. We get an excellent drawing with palms in the form of an OWL.
If you print two palms at once (left and right), you can make more interesting drawings. For example, such a swallow can decorate a spring craft. The drawing with palms needs to be completed only with a circle-head and three strokes of the tail. The idea is suitable for drawing notes for SPRING.
The eagle bird is also obtained if you print your hands in turn (right, then left) - placing them opposite each other (smoothing the base of the palm onto each other). We draw the white neck of the eagle with our fingers, dipping them in white gouache.
As you can see, drawing with palms can depict absolutely any bird. Try to make yourself a STORK, a HERON (the frogs will be lower), a TITMIT with a yellow breast, a flock of cheerful SPARROWS.
Also, a handprint can be prepared and dried in advance to be used inside an applique craft. During kindergarten classes, you can prepare children’s handprints in advance (by signing the name on back side, so as not to confuse). When preparing for the applique, we cut out the outline of the palm, prepare other details of the future craft, and the children’s task is to simply put all the elements of the picture together. Make a ROOK bird or chicken with a palm wing. This hand-painting craft is suitable for junior group kindergarten. Don’t forget to use blue or white paint to make the snowfall dots, and yellow paint to make the grain dots in the feeder - you don’t need a brush for this, you have FINGERS.
And here is a cute chicken with a palm wing. This application in kindergarten is suitable for children of the younger group.
Two black handprints - and we have the wings of a crow. Now you need 2 circles of black paper (smaller for the head, larger for the body), a beak and legs made of red paper. Great fun craft for kids middle group kindergarten.
Here is a craft for the youngest children. Glue the owl's body onto a piece of paper, then two eyes and a beak. And all that remains is to add wings to her - typos of palms with bright gouache. Great idea for kids.
The same can be done with a chicken craft made from yellow palms. Drawing after the completed application. First we work with glue, then we paint our hands with gouache, stamp them and wash them under the tap with soap. In kindergarten, this work on a craft can be divided into 2 parts - in the first half of the day we do the applique itself, and after sleep, individually, one by one, the children approach the teacher, who applies paint to the palm and helps the child make the print correctly. After applying, the teacher wipes the main layer of paint with a cloth and sends the child to wash his hands with soap... and calls the next child for the same procedure.
Separately, I want to post the topics of palm paintings - topics that GIRLS will like... and then those that will interest BOYS.
A good topic for girls is drawing a bunny. Delicate white craft on a background of black cardboard.
IMPORTANT NOTE!!! .If you plan to leave a paint mark on glossy cardstock, you won't be able to. The gouache will curl into droplets without sticking to the smooth, slippery cardboard. TO AVOID THIS, you can use one trick - add a little bit to the gouache liquid soap- and then the print will calmly lie on the glossy cardboard.
Drawings with palms can be decorated and decorated with the most different materials– feathers, colored paper applique, beads, rhinestones.
You can draw a delicate pink flamingo. Paint your palm bright pink and make a juicy palm print on a piece of paper. And immediately, before the paint has dried, sprinkle the wet surface with glitter. The craft is suitable for kids.
Girls will also love hand painting the MAGICAL PONY UNICORN. A beautiful delicate unicorn craft can be decorated with sparkles and rhinestones. To attach the sparkles, use PVA glue - draw the elements of the mane and tail with glue and immediately, before the glue dries, sprinkle everything with sparkles. We wait a few minutes and shake off the excess glitter onto the newspaper.
This is the kind of interesting frog friend you can get if you cover your palm with thick green paint. We wait for everything to dry, add the outlines of the legs with a black marker. Let's finish drawing the fly. Even before making a print, you need to glue a green oval of a water lily leaf onto a blue paper background - and then make a print on top of this sheet. Frog is a theme that everyone loves.
Girls will also like drawings of flowers made from palms. If a bright palm is complemented with a long green stem-leg and leaf, we will get a flower with blooming petals. It remains to place the sun, butterflies and bees nearby. Bees are fingerprints.
Here's a hand drawing of a flowering cactus in a pot. An excellent idea for drawing in kindergarten - middle and senior groups. A simple, child-friendly topic on unconventional drawing.
Here's an idea for a butterfly craft. This can be a simple print directly onto paper. Or you can prepare handprints separately, dry them and cut them out as in the master class below. The craft is also suitable for kids.
And girls also like angels. An angel craft for Christmas can please your grandmother or mother. Beautiful angels using the palm painting technique.
Now let’s see what handicrafts boys in kindergarten and school can make with their own hands.
Here's an idea for a fire breathing dragon. Here we paint the spaces between the fingers with yellow paint. Add the long tail and neck of the dragon.
For children younger age A suitable craft for kids is in the form of a large dinosaur. Here the adult makes a silhouette appliqué in advance and the child only leaves a few handprints on the back of the animal. A simple, understandable theme for kids.
Older children can paint the body and tail of the dragon themselves.
Pirates and their ships will also delight boys. Suggest one interesting craft on the weekend to your home robber - he will be delighted.
Try to come up with imprints of those characters whose adventures you read before going to bed. These could be good kings, wild Indians, ninja turtles, alien robots, etc.
Boys like to draw scary spiders - two hands will make a great spider. We glue the eyes from white paper.
Cute cats can also be depicted using the palm of your hand. We finish drawing the tail and head with ears. It will look great if the head is cut out of a piece of fur or velvet paper– it will make a great craft for senior group kindergarten. And kids will love it – stroking a kitten’s delicate fur is great fun for little children.
Here is a beautiful spotted dog. We make a white drawing of the palm and add the outline of the head and then use our fingers to make dots from black gouache.
For a 3-4 year old child, this craft in the shape of a dog is suitable. Make a handprint using white gouache on black paper. Cut it out. Add an oval white head, black ears, nose and eyes. A good topic for a drawing lesson summary theme week"Pets"
And if you make a print of a dog with the little finger and thumb protruding, you will get such a cute portrait of a doggie. Dogs are a popular children's theme.
And here interesting way creating drawings of animals using the palm painting technique for children. If you place your palm on the paper SIDEWAY - fingers spread to the left or right - then we get a blank for an animal that clings to a tree trunk or vines in the jungle. And of course these animals will be a MONKEY or a KOALA BEAR.
And if we lower the slightly spread fingers of the palm down, we get four legs for animals with four paws or hooves. Crafts and drawings of BEAR and GIRAFFE were made using this technique. We make the giraffe's spots with our fingers. These animals are often used in kindergarten as an unconventional drawing.
And here are beautiful crafts with the addition of colored paper - BULL and RACCOON. Simple drawing with palms for the older group of kindergarten, for children 5 - 7 years old.
From two palms, MOTHER'S and CHILDREN'S, you can make beautiful pictures in the form of animals and their babies. Horse with foal. Elephant with baby elephant. Beautiful family crafts with your own hands from palms.
For the little ones, a HEDGEHOG craft is suitable, where you just need to print your palms in a chaotic order. It will turn out well if you smear each finger with a DIFFERENT shade of brown - this way we will get not a general mess-mass, but needle-like outlines different colors. An excellent craft for an activity in kindergarten - here you can give the children the outline of a hedgehog, paint, a brush, and let them dirty their palms themselves - apply them with their fingers up on the hedgehog, stain them again and apply them again. Delight and puffing for at least an hour.
Inhabitants of the seas (crabs, fish, turtles and other aquatic life) also turn out great when drawing with your palms. Take a sheet of paper blue color– glue a strip of yellow paper onto it (this is sand), a piece of cotton wool (this is a cloud). And all that remains is to make two handprints with red paint and we get a drawing of a CRAB. Simple craft for a lesson in non-traditional drawing in kindergarten.
The marine theme can continue with any characters, whales, sharks, crayfish, snails, turtles. Let's see…
Palm print of blue color you can turn the whale fish into a miracle Yudo.
HERE IS A SIMPLE CRAFT for non-traditional drawing FOR KIDS IN KINDERGARTEN. Suitable for nursery group, the teacher hands out paper aquariums to the children and all they have to do is add a handprint to it - it will be a fish. Glue on the eyes and draw a mouth. From colored paper we add bubbles and algae, sprinkle sand (sifted from the sandbox) on the bottom in a puddle of PVA glue.
If you paint your palm with stripes, then we will get this drawing of a STRIPED fish from the cartoon. An affordable craft for beginners in an art circle.
You can get drawings of TURTLES in the same way - here you need to add strokes to outline the lower edge of the shell, a round head and expressive eyes.
A black marker, dots along the marker prints and we have a charming OCTOPUS. Remember that the marker only writes on dry paint.
You can take a large sheet of paper and place on it a whole composition of different characters drawn using the palm painting technique for children in kindergarten.
And also looks great teamwork for the entire kindergarten group - AQUARIUM in the form of a large panel on the wall. For collective lesson in the summer season.
And of course New Year's celebration also boasts ideas for crafts using the palm painting technique. Here we can make Santa Claus with a white beard from a palm. Or bright candles on a Christmas wreath made of fir legs. Choose your themes and decide how they can be displayed using the technique of drawings with palms.
So bright and beautiful idea for kindergarten on drawing with palms at lessons.
Now you can make crafts with your own hands using children's handprints.
Good luck with your creativity. Let everything work out.

Parents of newborns are delighted with the tiny hands and heels of their baby. Of course, I want to capture this touching sweetness. Some mothers take hundreds of photographs of tiny heels emerging from under the blanket. Others make crafts with casts of arms and legs made of plaster or salt dough. We found a very elegant way to create unusual prints of children's feet and handprints.
Look at these panels. In fact, the elements of these paintings are tiny prints of children's hands and feet. Really, they fit very well into the overall picture?
You can make such paintings yourself, on thick paper. Or you can make prints separately and make a collage in Photoshop.
This method of decorating the prints of children’s feet and palms has an undoubted advantage: the panels look stylish and will be able to decorate the child’s room, even when he grows up and begins to rebel against everything “toddler-like.”
Children themselves can make drawings with handprints. Offer them a story and let them imagine how footprints or handprints could appear here.
And such paintings can also be made as a gift to grandparents. Collect the palm prints of all family members in the picture, select beautiful font and sign the names and the date the collage was made.
Capture memorable moments of your child's childhood different ways: photographs, first drawings, growth scale, joint crafts, etc. One of the most popular ways to preserve warm memories is to make casts of the baby’s hands and feet. And you can make the basis for them with your own hands.
Believe me, your child will be pleased to look at his hands and feet in the future. And you will experience warm feelings looking at this beauty. Many people now make prints to order and keep them for years. But if you make the material for the impressions yourself, the result will not change at all.
And making the material is as easy as shelling pears. Roughly speaking, we need cool salted dough.
Mix flour and salt and carefully pour in water. The dough should not stick to your hands. If it still sticks, add a little more flour.
Roll out the base and give it the desired shape (circle, square, star, etc.). If you have something to cut out, you can make a base of an unusual shape.
Now we leave a hand or foot print in the center. You can use a toothpick to write the name and year.
Place the product in the oven, preheated to 100 degrees, and leave to bake for 3 hours. If the layer is very thin, you can reduce the temperature to 80 degrees. When the time is up, we take out the craft and leave it to “rest” overnight.
The next day we paint the cast with any paints. When the paints have dried, we fix them with varnish (preferably 2-3 layers) so that the product will never deteriorate.
A drawing made from palm prints is always a very surprising and interesting sight. Both children and adults really enjoy watching how the familiar shapes of children’s hands sometimes turn into.
The process of creating something like this causes great delight among children.
When we draw with our palms and hands, the work involves many sensitive endings, which this zone abounds in, so the child not only enjoys the activity, but also activates many areas of the cerebral cortex, which contributes to its development.
A pink palm can turn into a strawberry or a piece of juicy;
and from several two-color contours of the handles you will get a charming centipede.
The yellow and black print can be used to create an applique.
Pale green palms can make cheerful sea turtles - just add them to a suitable background.
The pink trace of a child's hand will become a very appetizing ice cream;
and prints of different colors can be used to create beautiful mermaid hair and tail.
A palm painted in a certain way can become the basis for the image of a stern sea pirate.
A gray palm print can easily transform into a smart dolphin.
Raspberry handles will complement the image of a cancer well;
and a brown palm can turn into a real walrus.
The pink print will become a butterfly using two bright hearts;
and two brown marks from the palm - a cat.
A white print can easily be turned into a zebra by applying black stripes to it.
A green palm easily becomes a dinosaur.
Two yellow prints are a perfect base for a pair of swans.
One blue print and a pair of green prints can make a field bell.
And the white palm can easily transform into a family.
Each handprint drawing is not easy. It is also a memory of what the hands of the child who discovered it were like at that time.
