Popsicle Stick WhaleSupplies:

optional – glitter, rhinestones, feathers etc.

Directions:

* First glue your popsicle sticks together to look like a fence {THREE next to each other with TWO mini across} Set aside to let it dry completely. Repeat.
* Next grab your craft paint and paint the front of your popsicle stick design completely blue. Set aside
* Now you are ready for the cardstock. Cut out some fins, a tail and some “water” to shoot out of the whale.
* To finish off your Popsicle Stick Whale kid craft – have children glue on their cardstock pieces, as well the wiggle eye. Then let it all sit aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!!!
