Tiny bumps all over hands?
I started working at a summer camp last week and it seems like ever since, these small, almost unnoticeable bumps have appeared all over the tops of my hands and some on my fingers. It is only on my hands, no where else. They itch a little bit sometimes, but not really unless I touch them. They are basically the color of my skin and from far away you really can't even tell that they are there. I have no clue what it is though? I was thinking that maybe it was caused by the sun but I have no clue.
Anyway ever experience this/have any idea what it is?

Could be eczema. If your skin gets really dry and starts cracking after a week or so, you'll want to get some hydrocortisone cream to put on them.
I get eczema on my hands, mostly when I come into contact with something I'm allergic to.

Go to your doctor, they could be bird mites/lice.
Though this is very rare, trees with birds,
bird nests, attics, and even rain gutters can harbor these pesky creatures. They could also be spider mites. Better to check it out, find the source, and treat both problems at the same time. (They must be sighted through a microscope.)

I think I know exactly what you're talking about, because I have the same thing. I really didn't think much of it and they went away on their own after a few weeks.
If they're still there after a few weeks, it might not be the same thing I have, though. If they keep up, check in with your doctor. I'm sure it's nothing serious, though, and they'll probably clear up on their own like mine did.
