Follow The Stone With The Footprint! By Geralyn Hydock on - Updated Oct 15, 2011

What better way to preserve your grandchild's footprints than with a personalized stepping stone. I was pleasantly surprised for Mothers Day last year with a stone my grandson had put his little feet into. You can probably guess, it went right into GG's garden. GG is a big mush when it comes to things given to her by her kids or grandson! It looks beautiful and it reminds me of him every time I see it. It will sure come in handy when he moves away to Texas late spring. GG is in mourning already!

The kit comes with eight pounds of a grey stepping stone mixture, 12' reusable plastic mold, 6 pots of decorative paint, 1 paint brush, 1 wooden mixing paddle, 1 craft stick for writing, and easy to follow directions. The size of the stone when taken out of the mold is 8"x 8". These stones make great gifts for moms, dads, and grandparents. I was totally excited when I received mine! I recommend this kit to everyone looking for that extra special gift.

I want two of these! Where do you find this product? I would have loved to see the picture so I know what it looks like in the stores. This is an awesome idea and a keepsake for sure!

My kids did one of these when they were little. I really ought to get a new one of them as teens. I think it would be fun! IF they can fit their big hands in it! Might take two...

That sounds great! Sounds like a great gift, especially with Mother's Day around the corner. We made something like this when my son was a toddler. I love looking at it and seeing how much he has grown, of course it makes me a little sad too, but they seem to grow up too fast :)

aww, I love this. My kids did these in kindergarden as Mothers Days gifts to me, I am so glad they had the same teacher because I would not take anything for them! :D
