One Fish, Two Fish Canvas Keepsake For Dr. Seuss Week

Happy Sunday everyone! How many of you know and/of heard of the saying “One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish?”

Are you stumped? Well – it’s the title of a Dr Seuss classic and one of my favorite childhood books. It’s also what inspired today’s Handprint Fish Keepsake craft post!

With a few simple steps and craft supplies – you can make one with your little one as well! Find all the details below! Happy crafting, my friends!

Dr Seuss Inspired Fish Canvas Painting {Kid Craft}

Looking for a fun and easy craft project to do with your kids? Check out this adorable Dr. Seuss inspired fish canvas project!

Craft Supplies:

  • Large White Canvas
  • Craft Paint
  • Paint Brushes
  • Baby Wipes
  • Scrapbook Stickers

Directions:

  • First paint your canvas a light shade of blue {or google an image of the Dr Seuss book cover and go with the original book colors}
  • Next I painted Lil Man’s hands in each color and had him press them on the canvas for our “fish.” The first fish was yellow; then two green; followed with a red fish and ending with a blue one.
  • Once you got the fish in place, let it dry completely.
  • To finish your Handprint Fish Keepsake Canvas – add some fish features to the handprints {lips & eyes} and stick your scrapbook stickers on. If you want some reinforcement for the stickers – add a layer of Mod Podge over the stickers so they won’t go anywhere.
  • For an added look, I painted on some bubbles in the water with white paint.
  • Don’t forget to add your child’s name/age on the back so you remember when it was made. For easy hanging – hot glue some ribbon on the back.
