Summer Reading is coming up soon, and this year's theme is Oceans of Possibilities! Make this cool ocean-themed craft to celebrate.
You Will Need:
- Construction paper (any color)
- Black paper
- White paper
- Scissors
- Glue
- Pen
Instructions:
Start by cutting your some of your paper into 6 inch long by 1 inch wide strips (NOTE: do not use the black and white paper yet). You’ll need 60 strips total. Now we’re going to make paper chains! Place a strip of glue at the end of one strip, and roll it into a circle, overlapping the ends to glue them together.
Thread the next paper strip through the circle, and glue it in the same way. Go ahead and make your paper chain 10 circles long. If this is too much paper, fee free to make the chains shorter!
Now make 5 more, for a total of 6 paper chains. Next, you’re going to take another sheet of purple paper and cut out a squid/octopus head shape. Make the head fairly large. Then on your white paper, draw two oval eye shapes.
Now place some glue near the bottom of the head, and start gluing on your paper chain tentacles!
You’re all done! You can hang your octopus from the ceiling or a wall.
