As the mother of a toddler, (22 months) I try to stick to activities that require a short attention span. This paper plate fish is a perfect example of a quick but exciting toddler activity to do together. The one pictured here, we both worked on, using Crayola Supertip Markers and our Crayola Marker Airbrush.
We did this project again when our friend came to play (18 months) but I didn't get any pictures of the finished product. That time, I had a bunch of 1 inch circles punched out of colorful scrapbook paper. The boys picked out which circles they liked, then used paintbrushes and white school glue to "coat" the plate. They stuck their circles on, let it dry, and then I cut the plate and attached the fin for them. |
