who knows this famous nursery school activity?

Question

its the one with the fingerprints and it has a rhyme under it that makes the parents well up when they read it
goes something like this
There used to be so many of my fingerprints to see..........

Answer 1

My Handprints
There used to be so many
Of my finger prints to see
On furniture and walls and things
From sticky, grubby me.
But if you stop and think awhile
You’ll see I’m growing fast
These little moments disappear
You can’t bring back the past.

So here is a small reminder
To keep, not throw away
Of tiny hands and how they looked
To make you smile someday.


Lots of little fingerprints
Grubbying up the walls
They get painted over when
The decorator calls

Smudges on the furniture
And on the tv screen
All removed by polishing
To leave things sparkling clean

Muddy little footprints trail
Across the kitchen floor
But Mrs Mop and bucket come
And then they are no more!

But little children grow so fast
And memories of handprints fade
This souvenir will bring them back
And as you see - it's all HAND-MADE

Answer 2

I know one simular, goes like this,

Hands are good for holding
And so many other things
I use them to wash dishes
And wear all kind of rings

I use my hands to lift up pens
And draw my funny pictures
Of animals and monsters
And of me getting into mischeif

With them I can do handstands
Make the world go upside down
Play with a yo-yo in the garden
And paint my face like a clown

Now I've used my hands just here
It's my very own design
They may hang it in a gallery
And I would say "Thats mine!"

This is one we use in school with childrens hand prints,
Sorry it's not the same one but if you are stuck you could
maybe use it!

Answer 3

This is the poem on my little boys handprint...


Handprints

Sometimes you get discouraged
Because I am so small
And always leave my handprint
On furniture and wall

But everyday I'm growing
(I'll be all grown someday)
And all those tiny hand prints
Will surely fade away.

So here's a final handprint
Just so you can recall
Exactly how my fingers looked
When they were very small.
