You probably have all of the supplies to make this fun little ghost handprint craft.

Supplies needed to make a scary ghost handprint:

How to use the ghost handprint template

Print out the template below, it will print out on three full pages and will print out landscape. Make sure to check the printer settings.

If you are printing on colored paper please only print the first page. The second and third pages are the Halloween stickers, and these will definitely look better printed on white paper.

You can of course print this on normal printer paper, but with all of our crafts, they always look better on cardstock.

The first page is the ghost handprint template.

The other two pages are stickers that you can cut around and add to the ghost handprint art.

Grab the supplies above and get creating!

Let the kids decide what color handprint they want to use. We decided to have a blue ghost, but using black paint would look great too.

hand and blue paint

Use a small paintbrush to add a thin layer of paint to their hand. Make sure you have the wipes handy!!

Cover their hand with paint and place their hand downward with the palm of their hand covering the eyes and nose. Press down all along their hand to make sure the handprint transfers fully.

Pull the child’s hand up carefully making sure you don’t smudge the handprint.

Let it dry completely before adding googly eyes and stickers.

Cut out the stickers and let the kids decide whether they want to add them to this picture or to another one.
