I've done a few hand and footprints of my son when he was younger and used child friendly ink pads. Less messy and that is certainly what you want if LO is a wriggler! hehe!
A lot of things like, getting prints and taking moulds of LO's feet and hands with casting kits recommend doing it when they are asleep. Maybe you could try that
The casting kits look really good, though I haven't used them :/

I wanted to make a card for DH with a hand print and footprint for Father's day and I've been wondering what to use as well. I've looked at paint in various shops but I'm not sure if it's the right kind or how easy it would be to use!
Child friendly ink pads might be the way forward!

Really is! Its less messy, and its easy to clean off and of course non-toxic!
Granted I haven't used paints but I can imagine exactly how that would go down!
