Jolly Jiggly Jellyfish

It has no brains or body, but this jellyfish sure looks jolly! Create a whimsical sea-faring friend with Crayola Color Explosion™ White.

1. With Crayola Scissors, cut Crayola Color Explosion™ White paper into 2- x 5-inch (5 x 13 cm) pieces. Round the corners on one end for the jelly’s head.

2. At the other end of the paper, cut long fringes about three-fourths the length of the paper for the jelly’s tentacles.

3. Expect the unexpected! Use the Color Explosion Marker to draw a face and other details on the jellyfish. Add details with the black drawing marker if you wish. Every jellyfish you make will look different!

4. To add some jiggle to your jelly, fold the tentacles accordion-style. Your jelly has come to life! Why not hang several in a mobile above your bed?

Jellyfish are not fish. They are invertebrates, which are relatives of coral and sea anemones. They have no eyes, hearts, bones, or brains. They have a simple nervous system to sense food and danger.
