Handprint Held Ice Cream Cone Craft

This Handprint Held Ice Cream Cone Craft is a sweet treat that’s sure to beat the summer heat! Simply trace and cut out the little one’s handprint, print our Free Printable Ice Cream Cone Template, and decorate with the sprinkles of your choice!

What flavor of ice cream is your favorite? I tend to prefer chocolate, but you can’t go wrong with vanilla and sprinkles. For this craft, we made sprinkles 3 ways: small poms, sequins, and colorful markers. You could also make sprinkles with tissue paper and fingerprints. Or make toppings with swirls of paint.

To make our Handprint Held Ice Cream Cone Craft you will need our Ice Cream Cone Template, a brown marker, scissors, and a glue stick. You will also need white and brown paper, along with the color paper of your handprint as well as the base color paper. Then, gather supplies for the sprinkles. We used poms, colorful markers, and sequins.

Handprint Held Ice Cream Cone Craft

Supplies needed:

• Ice Cream Cone Template
• Paper – white, brown, assorted colors
• Markers – brown, assorted colors
• Poms
• Sequins
• Scissors
• Glue stick

Begin by printing the Ice Cream Cone Template.

Trace your little one’s handprint on the color paper of choice, make sure you include some of the wrist and arm, too, so it can go across the page.

Cut out the handprint and from the template cut out the ice cream scoop and cone. Trace the cone on brown paper and cut out. You can leave the ice scream as is on white paper.

Use the brown marker to make cross hatch marks across the cone.

Glue the cone to the center of the base color paper.

Put the ice cream scoop on top.

And position the handprint across the cone.

Cut away any excess from the edge of the paper.

It’s now time to decorate!

This is the really fun part. You can decorate your ice cream cone like we did with markers, poms, and sequins, or come up with your own ideas! If using poms, glue dots are really helpful.
