How to make a jellyfish friend
Once you have all the materials from the list above, it's time to get crafty! Don’t forget to ask a grown-up to help with the scissors.
Take your paper bowl and paint it a colour of your choice. This will be your jellyfish's body.
Once your paper bowl is dry, glue all around the inner rim.
Take your strips of coloured tissue paper and stick as many as you like.
Add eyes to your jellyfish. You can draw them on with pen, or use two small white circles of paper and draw dots in the middle.
Carfully make a hole in the top of your jellyfish and thread some string through.
Tie a knot at the bottom and your jellyfish is ready.
