Kids Foot and Hand Print Calendar


 Wife Hat Mom Hat shows an adorable way to make a kids crafted calendar using their hands and feet.  Your kids will love all of the printing.  The only caveat appears to be how often you'll need to wash your child's feet to get a new paint color.  One idea is to make one each month and then you'll see how your child's hands and feet grow as the year progresses, but you'll also have to be very organized.

Good for ages 5 and up because some of the photos require more painting than just the prints.
