Anyone doing any crafts for Grandparents Day? I was thinking of a flower consisting of hand prints as the petals and foot prints as the leaves and maybe cut out the middle of the flower and put a picture of the child.

My gang is doing this craft for Grandparents Day. My parents LOVE that we do a special craft for Grandma's and Grandpa's. I just ask how many copies each child will need and do that many handprints for each individual child

so do you usually make a copy for both sets of grandparents? Mother and fathers side?

Also, what kind of paper is best for the hand print...do you think printer paper or construction paper is best or a more heavier paper?

I haven't decided if I'm going to just laminate them, or go tothe dollar store a get real frames.
And I used cardstock for the paper.

I combined some of the ideas I saw, the heart shape using fingers, the poem, a child's hand print and photo copying instead of paint. I just wish I would have thought of this earlier because they turned out so awesome I would have loved to frame them!
