Decorative Seahorses

Posted 2013-08-21 by EricaLfollow
A decorative activity for young children to do, making a seahorse out of a paper plate.

The indents on the edge of the paper plate make an effective seahorse dorsal fin shape which can be decorated with colour pens, crayons, glitter or stickers.



Time: 30 minutes
Age: Under 5's and 5-10's
Level: Medium (requires adult to hand draw seahorse shape) Easy for child to decorate.

Materials
  • Paper Plate
  • Scissors
  • Embellishments
  • Colour pens or crayons

  • Method
  • The hardest part is hand drawing the shape of a seahorse onto the plate, with the back fin using the plate edge. This will require an adult's skills, and may require a few attempts before getting right!
  • Use scissors to cut out seahorse.
  • Child decorates with embellishments, glitter, colour etc.
