Under the sea is a fun place to learn and play! We've had an awesome time learning about the different creatures from under the sea and making them come to life in our awesome crafts!
We started out by making a giant paper chain octopus! Everyone got to help and it turned out so pretty! Look for it on display in our window!
Next we went with a favorite of everyone's, socktopus'!
By crumbling up newspaper and stuffing the socks full, we make a big octopus head and use the bottom for legs!
Sometimes we just wear them on our heads!!!
We worked hard on painting some fancy sea turtles!
The kids used a variety of colors to make patterns and designs on their turtles!

Everyone loves to paint seashells!
After picking which shell they want, the kids work hard to paint and mix colors on their seashells!
We had a great time painting our tin foil fish and making designs in the paint afterwards!
Our last and by far coolest project was to make popcorn seahorses!
Time to bust out the popcorn maker!
The kids were so excited to measure the popcorn, pour it in and wait for the magic.
Everyone was jumping up and down excited when the popping began and they were even more excited to learn we were coloring it!
We used paint powder to make them purple and green and glue some awesome texture on to our seahorses!
We loved our under the sea theme and hope you did too!
