Bubble Wrap Printmaking: Ocean Scene

The Frog Princess got the idea for this project

while we were making our

bubble wrap corn prints.

She asked for some blue and purple paint,

and printed some bubble wrap onto white paper.

Then, she wanted to add fish to her ocean scene,

and asked if we have any fish stamps.

Then I said, "no, but we can make some!"

I folded scraps of cardboard

from our recycling bin

into rectangles and we added

stick-on craft foam fish

I folded the cardboard back

to make handles

and stapled the card board.

I love this picture,

I think she did a great job on it.

Check out the

coral and sea snails

she added with my skinny brushes!

If I was still teaching art,

I would do this as a printmaking lesson

with some Eric Carle books

in a heart beat.
