Instructions
Start by spreading newspapers over your work surface to make this Handprint Love The Earth Craft.
Pour a small amount of flesh colored paint in the paper plate. Â Place one hand in the paint and place on the paper using the picture as a reference for placement. Then repeat with the other hand, making sure that you have the thumbs and first finger touching to form a frame for the earth print.
While your handprints are drying, print and have the kids cut out the Earth heart.
Once the handprints are dry, have the kids glue the Earth heart in the frame to show they  love the Earth and will help take care of it.
