Thumbprint Mermaid Tail Supplies:

* Free Mermaid Template Printable {Download HERE}
* White Cardstock
* Color Printer
* Green Ink Pads {or whatever color you like!}
* Baby Wipes
optional – glitter, bows etc.

Directions:

* First download and print the mermaid tail template on white cardstock. You only need ONE print per mermaid craft. Feel free to print as many as you like!
* Next have children press their thumb on the green ink pad and then press it down, several times, on the tail of the mermaid. This will give the look of “scales” on the tail.
* Follow that up by adding other embellishments you see fit {like bows/glitter on the bra of the mermaid}
* Then display/gift away your thumbprint mermaid tail craft piece proudly!
