Handprint Sun Craft

As you can see craft time was nothing but thrills
and excitement!

I got this idea from Enchanted Learning.  It's amazing all the different ideas there are for crafts using cut out handprints.  The only one I knew of was the Christmas wreaths (no doubt we all made those in school at some point).

Materials:

glue stick/Elmer's school glue
yellow and orange construction paper
pen
scissors
googly eyes (I couldn't find our so the girls were stuck with drawing their own eyes...it was hard work but they managed. :-p)

Cute a large circle from the orange paper.  Glue on googly eyes and make a face.  Trace 8-10 hand prints and cut them out.  Trace out more for a fuller look.  Cut out the hands and glue them around underneath the sun's face with the fingers sticking out.  For a more sturdy result use a paper plate for the face and paint it either orange or yellow.

A great craft to display as a spring decoration and the fact there is very limited mess makes it even better!
