Plaster of Paris Hand & Foot Printing with Hope Home

At our latest workshop with the children at The Hope Home Foundation we found ourselves getting a little messy!  Inspired by the kids great reaction to texture workshops we've put on in the past, we decided to give them a little something different!  We used quick-drying Plaster of Paris to make hand and footprints that the kids will be able to keep for a long time to come.  The Plaster was a bit messier than we anticipated but everyone had a great time splashing around and feeling it's goopyness!



 

After we got everyone all cleaned up and set the plaster prints out to dry we tried out a new medium: play dough!  It was a big hit with the kids, they loved squishing it between there fingers and toes, dropping and watching is squish on the ground.  
 

 

All in all it was a great workshop!  There were lots of smiles and LOTS of messes but the kids got to experience two very unique textures.  Well worth it, I would say.
