Wood Clothespin Goldfish Craft

Time to spread those fishy smiles! Get your kids crafty with this fun and easy Wood Clothespin Goldfish craft idea. It’s a great way to stay creative while spending quality time with the family!

Craft Supplies:

  • Wooden Clothespins – 1 per fish craft
  • Orange Paint Pen
  • Tiny Wiggle Eyes
  • School Glue
  • Basic Craft Scissors
  • Gold Glitter Cardstock Paper

Directions:

  • First paint your clothespin completely orange {or any color you like!} We personally love paint pens for this small task BUT you can get the real craft paint out and use small paint brushes.
  • When done painting, set aside to let it dry completely.
  • While those are drying, grab your cardstock and cut out some fish features – think fins/fish lips.
  • To finish off the Clothespin Goldfish craft, have children “pinch” the fin cut out in between the clothespin and then glue their cardstock pieces & wiggle eye in place on the clothespin before playing and/or displaying proudly!!!

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
