Henry's sending out a handful of these guys as a thank you to everyone who sent him a birthday gift this year. We painted his hands in five different colors of Crayola Tempura paint and stamped them in a row on a large piece of white computer paper. When it was dry I took it down to Kinkos and made a few copies, pasted each hand print on colored paper, and stuck a magnet on the back.
Now grandma and grandpa can have Henry's messy prints all over the stainless steel appliances....just like he's really there!
