Y is for Yak Hand Art

This craft is great for kindergartners as they learn the letter Y. Don’t forget to print the free printable to go along with it for practicing writing the letter Y.

This craft uses some paint and simple supplies to make a y is for yak handprint. It’s always a lot of fun to for the kids to see how their hand print can turn into something else. For this activity, we use brown paint for the main part of the head. Next, we make the grey horns, black eyes, and big, pink snout. It’s a fun and simple way to make an adorable yak handprint!

Materials:

• Letter “Y” is for Yak printable
• brown paint
• black paint
• pink paint
• grey paint
• paint brush
• wipes to clean hands

First, print the printable to go along with this craft. We like to practice the letter on the first page before making our handprint, and we do the next page while the yak handprint is drying. First, paint the palm with brown paint.

Now it’s time to make the handprint! Make a handprint near the center of the page, making sure the fingers are close together, with fingers pointing downwards towards the bottom of the paper. It’s best to let this dry before moving to the next step.

Use a paintbrush and black paint to make two eyes. Use pink paint to make a sort-of upside-down heart shape for the yak’s snout. Lastly, use grey paint to make two big grey horns on the top of the yak’s head.

Let your artwork dry and then your y is for yak handprint is complete! While your yak is drying, complete the second page of the Y is for yak worksheet for more letter Y practice!
