Fun & Easy Strawberry Paper Craft with Handprint Stem
Summer is coming and with it fresh strawberries! I know in lots of areas you get fresh strawberries more often but in Maine we have a short picking window that starts in late June and runs a few weeks into July. I love picking strawberries and eating them. Every year we take a family trip to our local farm and pick our own strawberries. I decided to make this Strawberry Paper Craft to remind me of summer and picking strawberries.
Materials Needed
- Strawberry template (optional – I downloaded one here).
- Red and green construction paper

- Have your child use a glue stick to attach both the stem and the handprint to the strawberry.
