Inspired by the ocean and the first day of summer – today I present to you our Cupcake Liner Seahorse kid craft idea!

With so many ways to customize this kid friendly idea, it’s sure to be a real winner in anyone’s book!

So what are you waiting for? Let’s grab our craft supplies, follow the step by step tutorial below and get to work. Don’t forget to raid your local library so you have some ocean themed books to read in honor of your adorable creation! Happy crafting my friends!

Supplies:

* Mini Cupcake Liners {one per seahorse}
* Cardstock
* Glue Stick
* Wiggle Eyes
optional – glitter, rhinestones, etc. to give it that personalized look!

Directions:

* First take your cupcake liner {one per seahorse} and flatten it out.
* Next have children fold them in half to create the bodies and glue down {in various spots} onto a single sheet of cardstock. This step may take some extra effort but it’s super easy for kids to do.
* Once the cupcake liners are down, grab your cardstock and scissors. Go ahead and cut out a head, tail and fin to give your seahorse a one-of-a-kind look!
* To finish off – glue those cardstock pieces in place. Then add other embellishments you see fit and display proudly!
