Make with your child marine creatures

Offer your kid to make marine creatures - fishes and jellyfishes.

Before crafting view various pictures and photos of the underwater world.

View together films about the marine, read the appropriate books for kids. You can even go the oceanarium to view the fishes and other sea creatures.

Then offer your kid to make the crafts.

You'll need:


  • white disposable paper plates;
  • scissors, a stapler;
  • corrugated paper;
  • gouache or watercolors, brushes, a jar of water;
  • white paper, a black marker.

Take the paper plate and cut out a segment as it is shown on the photo below - it will be a tail fin.

Then attach the tail tin to the fish body with a stapler:

Cut out other tins of white paper and also attach them with a stapler.

Offer your kid to color the funny fish!

When the paints dry, draw the fish eyes on white paper with a black marker, cut them out and glue to the craft:

You can even make a predatory fish!

Make several fishes to arrange various games with them.

To make a jellyfish, cut a paper plate in half and color one of the pieces.

The tentacles can be made of corrugated paper, ribbons or laces - attach them to the jellyfish body with a stapler:

Your cool marine creatures are ready!

Arrange various role plays with them.

Make photos of your kid during the process, upload to the App. Write whether he/she liked the idea and what games you arrange with the new paper toys.
