Plasticine fish

Many children like the process of modeling. You can offer them to mold a fish.

For the craft we will prepare:

• plasticine;
• board for molding;
• plastic knife;
• colorless manicure polish;
• beads, plastic plants for aquariums;
• a round vase.

Step-by-step recommendations:

1. Roll a sausage from the plasticine, and use a knife to cut off a third of it.
2. The cut piece of plasticine is divided in half. From one part we make the tail. To do this, roll a ball and flatten it. Now use a plastic knife to cut the desired shape of the tail and make grooves along it. From the second half similarly make one large fin and two smaller.
3. Take a large piece of plasticine and make the body of the fish from it. To do this, roll a ball and use a knife to form scales in a semi-circle.
4. Assemble the fish. To do this, we glue the tail, the upper large fin and the lower small ones.
5. Shape volumetric eyes. First we attach two flattened white balls to the head of the fish, then on top of them smaller green ones. Small black round balls complete the design of the eyes. To make the eyes shine, you need to cover them with varnish.
6. At the bottom of the head of the fish cut through the mouth.
7. To decorate the composition, take a small spherical vase or a small round aquarium. Pour the beads at the bottom of the container. In the center we place the ready-made fish and distribute seaweed around it.
