Nabance Baby Handprint and Footprint Kit (Inkless) with 8 Print Pads, 16 Cards and Pet Paw Print – Black
Product description
The essentials
If you want a keepsake of baby’s first handprints and footprints without the usual fuss, this Nabance Baby Handprint and Footprint Kit is designed around inkless printing. On paper, that matters: no smudgy ink, no residue on delicate skin or on a pet’s paws, and no cleaning step in the middle of a slightly chaotic moment. You simply press, lift, let it dry, and you’ve got cards you can store for years.
That “no mess” approach is the main selling point here. It’s also aimed at early months: the kit is described as suitable for newborns (0–6 months) and small-to-medium pets. If you’re buying because you remember how messy some handprint kits can get, this is the sort of product you’d expect to make the whole process feel more manageable.
Key takeaways
This is a family memory set with practical packaging: 8 inkless print pads and 16 imprint cards, plus a dedicated dog pet paw print approach. Each print pad is listed as 9.5 x 5.8 cm, which should cover typical baby hand and foot sizes in the target age range (and smaller pet paws, where it fits comfortably).
You’re also given a simple routine: place the inkless print pad on the card, press your baby’s hand or foot (or your pet’s paw) onto the back of the pad, and lift to reveal the imprint. It’s not perfect in the sense that timing and pressure still matter, but it’s straightforward enough that most people can do it without extra tools.
One practical note: the instructions say to lightly dampen skin and practice on scrap paper first for best results. They also recommend letting prints dry for 2 hours. That’s the kind of detail that can make or break the outcome, especially if you’re doing this when you’re tired and baby (or the pet) wants to move.
What you’ll notice day to day
Where this kit can feel genuinely useful is in how “low drama” it is compared with classic ink kits. The description emphasises that impressions leave no residue on baby’s delicate skin or on pet paws, so you’re less likely to end up washing hands, clothes, and surfaces right after. If you’re trying to capture a milestone without turning it into a whole production, that’s a big part of the appeal.
For a micro example: imagine you set up on the kitchen table with the card flat, lightly dampen the skin (as suggested), do a quick practice on scrap paper, then press baby’s palm onto the pad for the imprint. When you lift, you’re not dealing with ink transfer—just a card that needs drying for around 2 hours.
If you’re using it for pets, the kit suggests cleaning and trimming fur for sharper impressions. In other words, it’s not magic: you’ll still need to prepare the paw so the print reads clearly.

Where it shines (and where it may not)
It’s a solid pick if you want a mess-free way to make family keepsakes and you’re working within the early baby timeframe. The inclusion of pet paw printing also makes it more flexible than a baby-only kit, particularly if you want to include a dog in the same memory set.
It may not suit everyone, though. The kit is described for newborns up to 6 months, so if you’re trying to capture prints later on, it could be less convenient or harder to get a good imprint. Also, while “no cleaning needed” is a strong claim, you still need to follow the prep/drying steps (practice first, lightly dampen skin, allow 2 hours to dry) to avoid disappointing results.
It’s also worth being realistic about pets: fur and wonky paw positions can make impressions less crisp, even if the kit itself is designed to be non-toxic and residue-free.
Is it worth it?
Worth considering if you’re after a family keepsake kit that focuses on inkless, non-toxic impressions for baby hands/feet (0–6 months) and pet paw prints, with the convenience of not having to wash ink off everything afterwards.
You may want to skip it if you need prints outside the 0–6 month range, or if you’re not willing to do the small prep steps (lightly dampening skin, practising on scrap paper, and waiting for the prints to dry). In those cases, inkless kits can still work, but the risk of “not quite right” impressions tends to rise.
Quick check before you buy: confirm you’re happy with the amount included (8 pads, 16 cards) and that you can set aside time for the 2-hour drying window for each set of prints.
