Start by placing your child's hand on a sheet of yellow construction paper and tracing around it with a pencil.

Ensure their fingers are spread out naturally to create an accurate outline.

Repeat this step on the orange and red construction paper, resulting in one handprint on each color (yellow, orange, and red).

Use scissors to cut out each traced handprint carefully.

You should now have three handprints: one in yellow, one in orange, and one in red.

Draw two log shapes on the brown construction paper, each approximately 1-1.5 inches wide and 5-6 inches long.

Add texture lines or patterns with child-safe markers to make the logs more realistic.

Cut out the log shapes using scissors.

Place a piece of white card stock on your work surface to serve as the base for your campfire craft.

Arrange the two brown logs on the white card stock in a criss-cross pattern, forming an 'X' shape.

Make sure the point where the logs intersect is slightly below the center of the paper to leave space for the handprint flames above.

Use glue to affix the brown logs to the white card stock.

Apply glue to the back of each log and press them firmly onto the paper in the criss-cross pattern.

Give the glue a moment to set.

Begin with the red handprint. Apply glue to the back and position it on the criss-crossed logs, angling it so the fingers point upwards like flames.

Next, take the yellow handprint, apply glue to the back, and place it next to the red handprint, with the fingers pointing upwards.

Finally, take the orange handprint, apply glue to the back, and position it in the middle, slightly overlapping the yellow and red handprints.

Gently press down on each handprint to ensure they are firmly attached to the card stock.

Allow the glue to dry completely before displaying or handling your handprint campfire craft.
