Since kindergarten is the first year of school for many kids, the artwork the students create is a keepsake for parents. To help parents remember what their child was like in kindergarten, hand prints are great to put in many pieces of their artwork. Hand prints can be included in seasonal art, as well as in art that goes along with the curriculum. One item that can be made at the beginning or the end of the school year is a sun. The hand print sun will make a classroom more cheerful and bright. Also, the hand prints will make the artwork memorable for parents.
