Paper Bag Fish
Lay a plain paper bag down flat. Leave the bottom folded up and fold in the corners of the bottom of the bag and staple in place to form the fishes snout. Loosely stuff the sack with scrap paper or whatever you have. Close the end of the bag with a rubber band. Slide it up a couple of inches and spread out the end to make the tail. Let the children paint the bag with watercolors or tempera paint any way they want. Add paper or googly eyes if the children haven't already painted on eyes. Some times we have attached these to a piece of yarn like a fish on a string. We have also added a straw to the yarn for a fishing pole.

Each weekday we will publish an easy craft for kids.
