MUCH easier painting their hand! I have a 2yrold dcb who HATES to be dirty/have food on his hands, etc. He doesn't exactly enjoy having his hand painted, but he lets me do it, sticks his hand down on the craft without complaint, and is then very happy to have it all wiped off! After it's done he seems mighty proud about the handprint he made, even though he didn't appreciate the process. Of course, the rest think it's absolutely hilarious when I paint their hands/feet for crafts, and this way each one gets wiped down immediately after they've had their turn, so no one can sneak a paint-covered finger onto their shirt/into their hair, etc, while I'm busy with the next one.
