Pearhead Newborn Baby Handprint or Footprint, Clean-Touch Ink Pad, Black

Really easy and mess free. When printing my little boys hands and feet I found that you don't need to press too hard to get a decent print (one I used previously for my first born required you to push babies hand and feet firmly on to the ink and the paper). It came out a bit messy but that is more down to having a wriggly baby. It did take a very long time to dry though so if you're putting it into a baby record book I would let it air dry for as long as possible. You are only supplied with 2 small pieces of paper but you can always use the ink again on other pieces of paper

A great product. Having used ink pads before which were so messy, this was an excellent product for my newborn baby, completely mess free and easy to get a high quality finish. I would recommend it.

Works out ok for the price. The first print will probably be your best one, my baby wriggled about so my first one wasnt usable and the next one didnt print as clear. Anyway for the price it is nice and would make a lovely gift. No ink on baby which is a bonus

For what it is (2 pieces of small white card and a thin in pad) I find this product slightly over priced. The ink itself does not seem to dry I took an imprint when my son was a month old that was 2 months ago and the ink is still sticky. You have to get it right the first time, which is difficult enough but especially with his product as the ink pad runs out after 2 impressions. I would still recommend this product however, as the impressions came out perfectly and there was no mess if your willing to maybe laminate the impressions to prevent smudging then this product can be a nice baby shower gift.

One review said to press hard for best results. No instructions or tips with purchase so I pressed hard with baby's foot, and it was a huge black splodge of ink, so tried on the back of the car again, wasn't great, so moved on to the 2nd piece of card to try again and ink was running out fast. For the price, why they can't supply a few more pieces of card I don't know because obviously it takes a few go's to get right. So because the 4 tries didn't work out, I ended up using my own paper and my kids face paint on my new baby's feet and hands instead and was perfect so I wouldn't recommend .

Whilst the instructions were very basic, it is really easy to use! No mess and baby didn’t even know I’d taken her foot and hand prints. They came out really clearly. Perfect.

Great product. Very practical application and makes a lovely print. Tricky thing to get a good irony but the product greatly helps rather than having messy paint.

The idea of this is fantastic but there are a few issues: 1. When new the ink is so ready to flow that it smudges extremely easily. 2. One print and most of the ink is used. The second print is far better (had 4 of them to attempt it on the first go) than the first because it’s less easily smudged but the quality of the print is not great as most of the ink was used on the first attempt. 3. The ink comes off the paper after it should have dried. We left them for over an hour to dry and the ink was still coming off. If the manufacturer could create an ink card that required you to be firmer and maybe a way to distribute the remaining ink from the sides to the centre then I would sing its praises. For the time being, I would not buy this again.

Your mileage may vary with your child but we had a very difficult time with getting viable handprints. Footprints were relatively easy, you just have to lightly press the feet into the inkpad, too much pressure will lead to a blotchy mess.

Very good product..

Facile da fare una buona qualità

We was surprised how amazing this product are, no mess, no dirty and super easy to use.

These are excellent. Very easy to use, absolutely no mess at all, and they come with enough to do a "test run" in case you do make a mistake! I used these on my dog to get pawprints and a nose print, and they worked perfectly. I found it was easy if I taped the paper to the ink pad, then used a sturdy surface like a book to tape the whole apparatus to so that it wouldn't slide or smudge. My dog isn't the biggest fan of things on her feet, so I'm happy this was able to be done with very quick and minimal pressure. Definitely recommend for a cheap but fun activity that will leave you with an impression of your animal (or baby)!
