    Foil, crepe paper or tissue paper (to cover the body of your jellyfish)

     

    Instructions:

    1. Cut your paper plate in half and cover with foil paper or crepe paper
    2. Now glue on two wiggle eyes and draw a mouth with a black felt pen
    3. Cut four lengths of ribbon (approx. 30cm in length)
    4. Glue each ribbon length to the back of the plate and allow to dry – these will be the tentacles
    5. Once the ribbons have dried, carefully curl each length of ribbon against the blade of a pair of scissors to create wavy tentacles for your jellyfish
