Welcome to Handprints ®
Help for Hand Skills of the Young Child
| Through history, the handprint has been used as a symbol of both our uniqueness and our commonality. From cave walls to Hollywood sidewalks to preschool classrooms around the world, the handprint symbolizes humanity. The handprint also represents an essential component of our functionality. It is the physical representation of our ability to impact our environment by touching, grasping, pulling, pushing, and manipulating it. |
