FAQ
What's included in a Little Touchprints kit?
Every kit comes with a split sports ball, a child-safe ink pad, a display base, a sealant bottle, an alcohol prep wipe, and a step-by-step instruction guide. Nothing else to buy. Just open the box, take a deep breath, and make a memory.
Which sports balls do you offer?
Right now we offer basketball and football kits. Baseball and soccer are on the way, and we'll announce them on our newsletter the moment they're ready. Want to be first to know? Sign up at the bottom of the page.
What ages is this for?
The kit is designed with little hands in mind, typically from newborns through age five. That said, there's no rule. Grandparents can capture their own prints alongside their
grandchildren, and the results can be just as meaningful.
Can I do more than one print with one kit?
The kit is built for one beautifully preserved print on the ball, but the ink pad has enough left for a few practice prints on paper beforehand. We recommend a quick rehearsal on a paper towel before the main event.
What if my little one squirms or the print smudges?
It happens. We designed the process to be forgiving. Use the alcohol prep wipe to gently remove the ink before it sets, dry the ball, and try again. In extreme cases you can clean the ink with rubbing alcohol and a rag.
Does the print need to dry before I spray the sealant?
Yes. We recommend letting the ink dry for at least 1 hr before applying the sealant. Full
instructions are included in every kit and walk you through each step.
Do I need to wash my child's hand before we start?
A quick wipe with a damp cloth is enough. You want the skin clean and dry for the clearest print. After the print is made, the ink wipes off easily with soap and warm water.

Will the ink stain clothes, furniture, or skin?
The ink is designed to wash off skin easily with soap and warm water. For clothing and furniture, we always recommend laying down a towel or working over a wipeable surface, since fresh ink can transfer if it touches fabric before it dries.

Adult supervision is required for sealing of keepsake. Sealer should only be applied to your keepsake.
