Short manual
- Clean your son or daughter's hand thoroughly before making the mold.
- Prepare the alginate rubber in a mixing bowl with lukewarm water, around 20 degrees. You can then immediately push the hand in.
- Make the mold by keeping the hand in the mixing cup with alginate rubber for 10 minutes. Explain that it is wise to keep the hand straight or slightly bended and that they should not move. You can reward your child for holding its hand still or you can do it while the child is watching TV. Just before bedtime is also a good option, as children are often tired at this time.
- After 10 minutes, remove the hand from the mold. Move the hand up and down and it will release by itself.
- Prepare porcelain plaster in the small mixing bowl and pour this into the mold.
- After 30 minutes, remove the cast from the alginate mold. You can break off the alginate, as the mold cannot be used more than once.
