I'm on a mission to find and/or create fun
, affordable, creative crafts to do with my toddler. Our first official attempt (aside from the daily - coloring books and paint with water) went surprisingly well.
We've been reading The Rainbow Fish recently, and since Kate loves making fish faces, I thought it only appropriate that our first craft include some fins.
I gathered our supplies - blunt edge scissors, glue, sequins, foam square, and one googly eye. Whenever we do crafts, I cover the table with Kraft paper so clean-up is super easy. Before we started our craft, we read our book to get excited about our fish!
We cut out a simple fish from a blue foam rectangle. 
I put small glue dots all over the fish - and wherever Kate insisted they go - and she placed the sequins. 
We added a googly eye, yellow lips and some fins, and our fish was ready for the ocean. Kate really liked the fins and wanted to add them all over the fish.
When we finished, we hung the fish on the refrigerator to dry, and Kate enjoyed a nice fishy snack.
