  1. make a paste of turmeric (haldi) and water instead of ink. for a deep golden colour, saffron is great. traditional colours are best and ink looks shabby. for a mould, you can make dough with plain flour (maida) 1 cup, half teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoon any cooking oil, and enough water to make soft pliable dough. you can colour it using turmeric or saffron, or after you take the impression, dry it completely ad then paint it. if you use plaster of paris, it is safe if you take the impressions very quickly. don't use any product which is used in building or construction as it may contain chemicals and children keep moving so much that it is difficult to protect their eyes and mouth.
  2. when the babies are with me,mother must do some things such as washing clothes,ok authomatically the children will come .so many examples,ok
  3. I made handprint casts of my Grandmonsters using salt dough. After letting it air dry completely I painted them with pastel colors, pink for the girls and blue for the boy. Here is the recipe for salt dough: http://kids.creativity-portal.com/d/recipes/salt.dough.shtml
