For the fish body, place 1 plastic-foam plate on your work surface, and put some glue on the rim. Place the other plate upside down on top of the first.
For eyes, glue 1 button on each plate. Let dry for 5 minutes.
STEP 2
Now make the fins and the tail. With adult help cut 4 slits in the paper cup, cutting from the top to the bottom. Cut the sides of the cup from the bottom. Now you should have 4 pieces. Throw the bottom away.
STEP 3
With adult help, use the crafts knife to cut slits in the fish body.
In the top of the fish, cut 1 slit for a back fin. Then, cut 1 slit on each side in the middle of the fish. Cut another slit for the tail. And finally, push the fins and tail into the slits.
That's it! Now make a big splash with your fantastic floating fish!
