Supplies you’ll need for this activity:

To make the kelp forest:

  1. Print out the sea animal printable.
  2. Cut them out and watercolor paint them, color them with crayons, or cover them with balled-up small bits of tissue paper.
  3. While they dry … cut out random wavy strips of green paper. Glue them to a sheet of blue cardstock.
  4. Glue strips of green yarn on top of the green strips.
  5. Overlap randomly. Have fun! It doesn’t have to be planned out or look perfect.
  6. Glue the sea animals on top of the kelp.
  7. You could also slice a bit of the kelp, attach the sea animals to popsicle sticks, and make your own kelp forest puppet show.

To round the corners on printables, we recommend this corner punch. It was such a great investment and is used all the time! It works great on everything from printer paper and cardstock to laminated paper. It really takes the printables to the next level! Also, it’s nice not to have to worry about getting poked with those sharp corners.
