Description

Aimed at children 6 and over

A

Hi everybody and welcome back to another chips craft. Today we are going to do the under the sea craft, I'm maddie, and I'm here with andrea, hello, and so what we're going to do is the first step is to get your piece of paper. It can be blue paper or it could be whitening color in or green or any aquarium color you like so you're gonna grab that and fold it in half, but don't worry about making crease down the other end down the side.

A

Okay, now you've done that you're gonna fold, the open half and do a little fold of both pages at the top and put a crease in there. So it looks like that.

A

Okay, perfect so now, you've got your crease you're gonna. Take your scissors and cut some wiggly waves up to the crease line here like this, so you're gonna go how many we do about four or five yeah, let's say four or five, depending on how big your paper is.

A

So I've got quite a small bit of paper, so I'm gonna do.

A

A

All right, open up.

A

Oh there we go so now, we've got it. It looks like this little ways and what you can do is pop some forward and thumb back. Yeah, maybe alternate it.

A

There we go see so now. What you can do is take some different colored paper and different pens or different stickers, whatever you have at home and you can start to decorate your aquarium with fishes and seaweed and other animals that come in the sea. So I'm thinking I'm going to show you what I've made earlier.

A

Oh perfect example: so I've kind of done a sea scene, so I've done a little boat at the top and then oh wow just use some scraps of card that we had we've done from previous activities to uh make it so yeah. We I mean it's going to bring my old one back. Have you got? Have you got anything? What are you gonna yeah?

A

I had two little goldfish that I've cut out of neon card and also then I wanted to do some seaweed, but I didn't have green paper, so I just drew some seaweed onto white paper and colored it in and now I'm going to cut it out. So I can stick it on.

A

So I've also done a little orange gold. Fishy thing, oh cool. I just think this one might be more of an aquarium.

A

You could do jellyfish, you could do um seahorses I'd, be like I'd like to see a seahorse. Actually, oh yeah, this would be cool. Oh crap, oh crap. That would be good and you guys can take as much time as you want to do your decorating.

A

So you can stop the video and cut out lots of different things, or maybe you could even find some pictures of some real sea animals online and print those out and stick those on yeah. This is the fun part. I had quite a lot of fun making it.

A

Oh yeah, you know in um fish tanks like those little treasure chests. Don't they that open, okay.

A

All right I'll just do those two as an example yeah, I'm just gonna do one bit of seaweed and my fish is gonna, be swimming from behind it.

A

So this is actually our last craft. I know this is the last week of the summer holidays wow, but we're thankful. I've had a nice time in uh taking part in this and yeah and we've still quite a photo of any of your completed art projects. Nice to see there we go.

A

Oh, I think yours, I think there we go. That's it. You can make them swim.

A

So we can't wait to see all the ones that you guys have made at home and all your different ideas and so send them to us on the chips. Facebook page.
