With summertime here, I thought that things would get a little less busy in this household. However, it’s been a whirlwind of fun, craziness and fun. Some of the things I promised the girls that we would do included fun crafts!

Directions for a Fish Aquarium Craft Inspired by Disney Pixar Finding Dory

Find a generous spot where your kids can space out make their creations. It might get a little messy.

Next, use blue construction paper to line the inside of the box to make the background of the aquarium.

You can add waves to mimic water moving in the aquarium.

Cut out the blue tang fish’s body in blue with black stripes and a yellow fin.

The next step is to cut fishing line and tape one end to the top of the box and the other to the fish.

The girls made the clownfish and a smaller version of a blue tang (you can appreciate that the other one was made by Ansley – she did it all by herself)!
