Summer Bunch: Ocean

Oceans and Beach

Read: The Beach Ball by David Steinberg and Commotion in the Ocean by Giles Andreae

Craft: Jellyfish inspired by scrapbooksetc.com


Jellyfish by scrapbooketc.com

  • Need: Paper bowls, eyeball stickers, various colored ribbons tied in a "pony-tail" (I used gift-wrap curly ribbon), various colors tissue paper, white glue and sponge brushes.
  • Prior to storytime, have your wonderful summer assistant tie strips of curly ribbon into "pony-tails." One ribbon-tail per child.
  • Layout bowl, sponge brush, largish pieces of tissue paper and sticker eyes at each craft seat.
  • Have kiddos "paint" the bowl with white glue. Then they can place the tissue paper on top of the glue and smooth down. Then stick on the eyes.
  • When children have completed the tasks, securely tape the ribbon-tails to the inside of the bowl.
  • Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!
