Is your little learner making the exciting transition from preschool, or perhaps kindergarten, this year? Mark the occasion and offer congratulations with this adorable Handprint Graduating Class Craft! It’s a wonderful graduation project and memorable keepsake, with the handprint arranged to represent the year.
Simply download our Free Class of Printable to get started. After that, trace around and trim the handprint. If your child will graduate next year or is anticipating 2025, we’ve also included ideas for using the sign for those years!
Graduating Class Handprint Craft
Before creating our graduating class handprint sign, print the class of printable. Gather cardstock in any colors you prefer, along with scissors and glue. We also embellished our signs with a star paper punch.
Handprint Graduating Class Craft Supplies Needed
- Class Sign Printable

Handprint Graduating Craft Step by Step Directions
First, print the class sign printable.
Choose any shade of cardstock for printing the sign.
Next, trace your hand onto a different piece of cardstock.
Carefully cut around the handprint.
To create 2023, attach only the 3 middle fingers immediately after 202.
Fold the pinky and thumb inward, then glue them together.
The fingers can also be folded to form 4 for 2024, or naturally 5.
To complete ours, we punched stars from yellow cardstock and attached them in random spots.
What a charming keepsake for such an important achievement! Congratulations!
