Make a Whale Water Scooper Craft

To make the above whale water scooper craft, just do the following. Get an empty, rinsed out milk or water jug. Add a little bit of Elmer's glue to blue or gray paint to help it stick to plastic. Then Paint the milk jug. Cut out 2 curved lines from the bottom for the mouth. Then Paint an eye (my eye is just a white oval, with a blue oval inside of, with a black oval inside that. Then just paint a white dot for the hightlight). Cut a circle at the top of the handle for the whale hole. Find some plastic, such as from a sturdy plastic bag (heavier than grocery bag plastic). Make a tale from that extra plastic by drawing a sideways heart shape. For the fins...just cut out 2 half circles. Now you can scoop water in the bathtub or pool and have a lot of fun.

Make Fingerprint Whales

Put your finger is some ink and press it down on some paper. Draw a tale and a fin. The fin can be made with a circle and a triangle shape. The tale is a bitt more difficult. It sort of looks like a letter 'T'. You can use a googly eye for the eye and draw or paint a letter 'J' for the smile. Draw an oval for the top hole. Draw water droplets coming out of it. Draw curvy lines under the whale.

Kids Whale Craft - This kids whale craft was created for two reasons. The first being that our daughter got frustrated with the paper bag whale craft that we tried with her initially and the second being that she laughs hysterically everytime I decide to craft something out of a sock! The sock actually is the perfect material to make a whale out of because it's easy to form and work with and it gives you a ready-made tail so you don't have to worry about getting it to stay on. This whale craft is a fantastic preschool craft and is good even for older children who could most likely go through the whole craft with minimal help. We love the way this ocean animal craft turned out and we hope you will too!
