Cupcake Liner Fish Craft Supplies:

* Large Paper Plate
* Multi-colored Mini Cupcake Liners
* Colored Cardstock {we used orange and white}
* School Glue
* Kid Friendly Scissors
* Hand-Held Office Stapler
* Colored Markers

Directions:

* First have children pick out what color mini cupcake liner cups they want to use to make the scales on their fish. You can do all one color or do multiple colors like we did. You will need approximately 20-30 cupcake liners per paper plate fish you make.
* Once you have your cupcake liners picked out – it’s time to make them into scales! Simply have children flatten each cupcake liner and then fold in half with some glue in the center, to create one fish scale. Repeat for each cupcake liner and set them all aside.
* Next take your paper plate and put a good amount of glue all over it. Have children place the finished cupcake liner pieces on top of the glue, until the paper plate is completely covered {if you need to – add more glue to secure the liners to the plate} Once done, set it aside to let it dry completely.
* Next it’s time to give our fish a personalized look. Grab your cardstock and marker. Carefully trace around your child’s hand. Trim out. This is a fin for the fish. With the remaining cardstock, cut out some eyes, mouth and a tail to complete the look.
* To finish off the Cupcake Liner Fish kid craft – staple/glue the cardstock pieces in their designated spots on the paper plate. Then display proudly {or add other embellishments to really make it your own!}
