Use a flat brush to apply a mix of brown and orange paint to their thumb. To make the thumbprint, press the thumb onto construction paper as soon as possible. To make one acorn, you need two thumbprints. It will be really interesting in creating various sizes of acorns.Â
Once the thumbprints had dried completely, reapply the flat brush to the Acorn caps and painted them in a “C” stroke. You may draw a C-shaped acorn cap for your young children and have them fill it in with color. Draw two lines on top and one line on the bottom. You may use markers instead of paintbrushes if you like.
To add appeal to your adorable Thumbprint Acorn Art, use a marker to create criss-cross strokes on the acorn cap. And your handiwork is complete.
