This fun activity is also great for any playdates with your toddler’s friends - seat all the children and let everyone make their own toothy fish. A storm of positive emotions is definitely guaranteed for everyone!

Necessary materials:


  • White paper;
  • pencil, eraser;
  • felt-tip pens, wax (oil) crayons.

We suggest using crayons for coloring, not pencils - the drawing will end up brighter.

How to make fish:


  1. Fold a sheet of paper in half, then fold each half in half again (fold the halves of the sheet as shown in the photo below).
  2. Draw a fish with your pencil.
  3. Expand the sheet and draw the fish so that it has a large mouth.
  4. Draw large, sharp teeth.
  5. Ask your child to color the fish however they want. To start, you can trace the main elements of the picture with a black felt-tip pen, and then color it in with crayons.
