Paper Plate Fish Bowl

Instructions:

Step 1: Rip up pieces of tissue or crepe paper into small pieces and glue to the paper plate. Use blue paper at the top for water, tan or yellow paper at the bottom for sand. Green paper can be underwater plants. Turquoise, pink and orange look like coral.

Step 2: Cut out pictures of fish from old magazines and glue them to the plate. Fish-shaped crackers also work well. If you have them, glue leaves and shells to the plate, too.

Step 3: Once dry, cover the entire plate with clear cellophane to give a fishbowl effect. If necessary, use tape to hold the cellophane in place

Step 4: Punch a hole in the top of the plate and tie on a piece of yarn for hanging.
