"I Love You Berry Much" Handprint Craft

Looking for a heartfelt and fun craft for kids? This “I Love You Berry Much” handprint craft is perfect for Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, or just because! With a free printable template, it’s an easy and adorable way for kids to create a keepsake for loved ones.

Handprint crafts are some of our favorites around here. Kids get big quickly and I love having some sweet crafts that have their little handprints on them to remind me, when they are old and have an attitude ;), of how little they once were.

We have done so many craft activities with handprints including one of our most popular handprint crafts, the Earth Day “Small Hands Can Change The World” activity. This berry one is so sweet and may be my new favorite handprint art.

You could make the template into a personalized Valentine’s Day card. It also would make a great gift to give to a grandparent to celebrate Grandparent’s Day. This cute keepsake craft is a great way to preserve those little hands.
