3. Puffy Ghost Footprint Art
Capture a precious moment in time with a spooky, sensory-rich keepsake. This craft combines the fun of messy paint play with a beautiful memory you will cherish for years. Mix equal parts of white shaving cream and school glue in a bowl to create a magical, thick puffy paint that retains its volume when dry. Dip your child’s foot into the mixture and press it firmly onto a sheet of black cardstock. Once the footprint is stamped, let them use their fingers or a paintbrush to spread the remaining puffy paint around the footprint to create a swirling, ghostly background. Once dry, use a black marker or small pieces of black felt to add a surprised ghostly face. The texture of the dried puffy paint is incredibly soft and tactile, making it a wonderful sensory experience for toddlers.
