Supplies for Paper Plate Jellyfish
- Paper plate (6 in or 9 in)
- Scissors
- Googly eyes
- Pencil
- Foam brush
- Paint
- Ribbon or yarn
- Ric rac trim

Directions
- First, use any color to paint your paper plate. I suggest using bright colors. Your child can add glitter or sequins to the paper plate. Set it aside to dry.
- Next, use a pencil to draw a wavy design on the painted paper plate then cut.
- Cut 6 strips of yarn or ribbon and ric rac trim. Tape them to the back of the paper plate to create your jellyfish.
- Finally, use glue to attach the googly eyes to the jellyfish. If you don’t have googly eyes, use black and white paper to make the eyes.
