CRAFTS & COLORING


Paper Plate Jellyfish http://learncreatelove.com/paper-plate-jellyfish-craft/

Tips: I used half paper plates (cheaper the better uncoated) and had childrens color the backgroud with crayons. 


Used stickers eyes from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Black-Eye-Stickers-roll-1000/dp/B00LNI9VBW/ref=sr_1_7?crid=283TF5GGSYT4W&keywords=sticker+eyes&qid=1658697661&s=arts-crafts&sprefix=sticker+eyes%2Carts-crafts%2C104&sr=1-7

Then we glued 5-6 paper strips (originally for weaving crafts) in bright colors to make the tenacles https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I7E31J8?ref=nb_sb_ss_w_as-reorder-t1_ypp_rep_k0_1_16&amp&crid=3REM3Y3C0S21N&amp&sprefix=paper+weaving+st
