Valentine Handprint Name Puzzle 

This handprint popsicle stick puzzle will promote name and letter recognition, problem-solving skills, and so much more. With extremely simple steps and only five materials needed, anyone can do this! You will need large popsicle sticks, tape, construction paper, paint, and markers to complete this craft!

How to make Handprint Popsicle Stick craft

•  Tape sticks together across the top and bottom (the number of sticks depends on how many letters are in your child’s name - one stick per letter of name) to form a “page.” 
• Start by writing your child’s name across the top or bottom of the sticks. Be sure there is only one letter per stick. 
• Begin painting your student’s hand. Choose a red or pink color for Valentine’s Day. Then add a small construction paper heart in the middle of your child’s palm so that there will be a heart shape on the puzzle. 
• Once the puzzle design is complete and dry, pull off the tape and mix up the sticks so your students can assemble a LOVELY puzzle that includes their names!
