Paper Plate Fish Craft
What you need:
• large paper plate
• blue paint
• scissors
• colorful paper (print paper works nicely)
• circle paper punch
• glue
• black maker
• white paper
• blue construction paper
Color the paper plate blue (or any other color you wish) and allow the paint to dry completely.
Cut a small triangle (piece of the pie) out of the paper plate. This will make the fish mouth (and the extra bit will be used for the tail).
Glue the triangle on the paper plate. You can also do this at the end. No particular order is necessary.
Punch a circle out of white paper. Draw a circle inside that circle with a black marker. Look you just made an eye.
Glue the eye on the paper plate above the mouth.
Now take all of your colorful papers (the more colors the merrier) and start punching.
If a sparkly paper finds it’s way to your pile of papers to be punched that’s even better.
Punch, punch, punch. You’ll need quite a lot of paper circles.
Fold all of the circles in half. Press down nicely so they are more closed than not.
Start gluing them in rows on the paper plate fish. We started by the head and worked our way to the tail.
Cut fins out of blue construction paper (or any other paper). Glue them on the paper plate fish.
You’ve got yourself a nicely looking rainbow fish paper plate craft.
