We've already shown you how to make a dingly dangly octopus , so here's a jellyfish to match. All you need to make one of these are scissors, sticky tape, and a few leftover party supplies.



Time: 5 minutes
Age: Under 5s & 5-10s
Level: Easy

Materials
  • Paper or Plastic Plates
  • Party Streamers
  • Scissors
  • Sticky Tape



  • Method

  • Take your paper or plastic plate and cut it in half, each plate can make two jellyfish.



  • Cut 6-8 strips of party streamers for each plate, it really depends on how big your plates are and how many 'legs' you want.



  • Begin sticking on your jellyfish legs. Stick them to the side of the plate that you'd normally eat off.



  • To give your jellyfish a face you can either use a marker, or cut out eyes drawn on white paper and stick them on. You can decide what sort of facial features you're giving your jellyfish.



  • If you're using paper plates you can even paint your jellyfish first. This is lots of fun for younger children, and will help personalise their jellyfish creations.

  • Now your jellyfish is ready to go. If you want to hang them up, just use scissors or a sharp knife to pierce a small hole in the top. Thread through a piece of string, and secure with a knot.
