How to make fish!

Welcome to our under the sea theme :) I can hear the Ariel the little mermaid song in my head right now!


First of all, you will need:

  • paper toilet rolls
  • pens, paint, crayons or something for colouring
  • scissors
  • googly eyes (optional)



Next, fold the toilet roll so it's flat.


Then, cut around one of the ends so it is rounded and cut two diagonal slits close to the other end but do not cut all the way inside (see photo below).


After this, fold the two'triangles' inside the fish so you are just left with a body and a tail, see below.


Finally, colour/paint the fish to your heart's content  and then glue/stick on (opps I forgot to mention you might need glue!) the google eye. One or both sides is okay depending on how you wish to display your fish.

Repeat the process for every child and you will end up with something like this!


This week we are also going to make jellyfish to add to our display and who knows what else might be lurking under the sea! ;)

Enjoy your week

P.S. please feel free to share any of your ideas for under the sea worksheets or art and crafts!
