Notes
I've used finger painting in this card to make it easy for toddlers and preschoolers to decorate but it’s something that you could really easily change depending what craft supplies you have and what your kids are into. You could do normal painting, drawing, collage or make some scales out of coloured paper.
You could also use blue card instead of white for the background if you would like to make it look more like the fish is in the sea. Go for a pale blue though to make sure you can still see the writing.
