How to make it
Safety

1Paint the hand and arm
Brush brown paint on your toddler's hand and the bottom of their forearm.
2Make the trunk
Press the arm and hand on the paper, fingers spread wide. The fingers are branches.
3Wipe and switch
Wipe the hand clean. Now it's fingertip time.
4Dot the leaves
Dip 1 fingertip in red and dot it all around the branches. Wipe, then repeat with orange and yellow.
5Add fallen leaves
Dot a few on the bottom of the page, like they dropped.
6Write the date
Add their name and the date once it's dry.
Edie's tipDot the leaves with a cork or the eraser end of a pencil if fingertips get too wiggly.
