How to Make a Handprint Hanukkah Menorah

I have a great Hanukkah craft for the youngest of craft fans.  Today I’m going to show you how to make a Handprint Hanukkah Menorah.  This is a great craft to do with your young children.  It’s an easy craft made from a little bit of paint and some paper.  And, keep in the mind…. just because it is an easy craft shouldn’t take away from the fact that this craft is a ton of fun.  So, grab your young kids and some paint and make this craft with me.
