Under the sea crafts

UNDERWATER WORLD is so beautiful and fascinating. The sight of colorful fish, jelly fish, star fish, green lush flora is absolutely amazing.

I believe all kids are amused by under the sea world and every child loves sea creatures.. be it jelly fish, octopus, crab, shark or just a golden fish.
Benefits of crafting with kids:

  • Enhances creativity 
  • Understanding of living creatures and body party
  • Development of fine motor skills
  • Cognitive development
  • Language development
  • Boosts bonding between child and caregiver 

So here are some of the Under the Sea Craft Ideas.

Under the Sea World

This is a perfect recycle craft to put a show box to use and create a underwater world in your house. The paintings on the sides of the box are painted by the child and so are the fish, octopus, sea horse. Stuck them to the roof of the box and we have our sea-world ready.

Handprint/Footprint Crafts

Why should we leave those tiny toddlers from enjoying crafting! Handprint and footprints crafts are the best for them. We can create fish, Crab, Octopus, Jelly fish by putting colors on those tiny hands.
