We have been learning a bit about animals and their habitats, including sea animals for the past couple of weeks. My girls are really enjoying comparing different types of sea life animals and how they adapt to their environment. Today we wanted to share our Easy Paper Plate Jelly Fish Kids Craft, which went perfect for our science lesson.

Easy Paper Plate Jelly Fish Kids Craft

Materials Needed:

  • Paper plate
  • Party streamers or tissue paper
  • Craft glue
  • Scissors
  • Paint and paint brush
  • Googly eyes
  • Marker

This was a super easy craft to create, but my girls had tons of fun!

Easy Paper Plate Jelly Fish Kids Craft Painting Plates

Step One: Cut your paper plate in half. You only need one side of your paper plate.

Step Two: Allow your child to paint the entire front of the paper plate any color they desire. You can be jelly fish specific or let them use their imagination. Allow paint to dry for just a bit.

Easy Paper Plate Jelly Fish Kids Craft Streamers

Step Three: While your paint is drying, go ahead and begin cutting the streamers. If you have older children allow them to cut their own, it makes great fine motor skills practice. For little ones go ahead and help them out.

You want to cut your streamers in half long ways. I cut my girls streamers almost as long as their arms, using 4 streamers, then cutting them in half. You should have 8 pieces of long thin streamers.

Step Four: Now that your paper plate paint is dried, flip it over to attach your streamers. Add one dot of craft glue on each streamer and glue.

Step Five: Time to create your Jelly Fish face. This is just optional, my girls have to have a face for every craft they make 🙂 Especially animals. 

Glue down google eyes and with a black marker have you child draw a mouth if they wish.

Now your Paper Plate Jelly Fish is ready to hang in your home and welcome the beach days to come!

Some of my favorite products to use:

  • Streamers
  • Googly Eyes

    Hi there, I’m putting together some craft ideas for a respite service. May I please use your images for the printed material? It’s just for the kids and our staff to refer to. I will keep your watermark.
