Fishy, fishy

Paper plate collage fish

Once again we are sick here in our household. So, there has been little activities, but here is a craft we did a few weeks ago. It is no secret my son loves water and anything that has to do with it, so I set up this easy fish craft that he for the most part enjoyed. 

Staple tail at point and curved opposite from body of fish

I added just a little glue at a time. 

Supplies

Paper plate

Torn construction paper (multiple colors)

Scissors

Glue

Stapler

Directions

1. Cut wide triangle into paper plate
2. Staple triangle point to opposite side of plate. Make sure curve of body and tail are opposite directions.
3. Place torn paper in easy reach of toddler. (I put mine in a bowl for him)
4. Drip a little glue on to plate and let toddler stick pieces of paper till paper plate is covered. 

Calan actually had fun with this craft. Nothing stuck to his hands and he liked to make his fish swim around the house afterward.
