Mother's Day and Father's Day Finger Print Card FREEBIE

This free Finger Print Animal Card lesson lets students create cards for Mother's Day, Father's Day or Someone Special. The Someone Special option is there for students who have other people taking on those roles.

Students make playful finger print animals on a card template, then write a message on the matching insert. A poster of finger print animal ideas, a student handout and a 6-slide visual and text demonstration show how to create the card from start to finish.
