handprint

[hænd.pɹɪnt]
German
Persian
Russian
Spanish

A handprint is an impression made by your hand on a surface, like paint or mud.

When kids are playing with art supplies or getting messy at the beach, they often make handprints. They might deliberately put their hands on a piece of paper to create a fun design or accidentally leave behind a smudge after handling something sticky. Handprint is also used for creative activities like making cards or decorations. If you see a picture of a kid's artwork with bright colors and squiggly lines, it's probably a handprint.
