Shark Chasing a Sail Boat

Imagine a sailor at sea, looking for a safe port. The seas are rough and a hungry shark is following close behind!! What happens next? Use your imagination and anything is possible!

1. Imagine a ship or boat sailing in the ocean; it can be any kind of vessel you like! Use the Crayola Color Surge™ Marker and Paper System to make the ship. Fold paper with origami or cut and glue pieces together to make your ship.

2. Use Color Surge Markers to decorate your ship. Cut and attach foam shapes and chenille sticks to give your scene even more personality and dimension. Glue on a craft stick as a mast to hold your ship’s sail.

3. Now the ship needs a sea with crashing waves. Fold Color Surge Paper like a fan. Cut waves in the folds. Again, use Color Surge Markers and foam shapes to add detail to the waves.

4. Watch out! Your sailor is not alone in the ocean. A shark is following close behind! Use another piece of Color Surge Paper to make a hungry shark—or maybe you prefer an octopus, whale, or some other animal. The two-sided paper colors are perfect to create wide-open jaws! Be creative!

5. Glue the pieces in place or leave them separate so you can play with them. Add more ships, islands, icebergs, even pirates. Tell the story of your nautical adventure to your friends and family!

Many pirates have claimed to sail the seven seas. In Medieval European Literature many different seas were counted as part of the seven seas including the Adriatic Sea, Irish Sea, and Black Sea. Today the seven seas are considered to be the North Pacific Ocean, South Pacific Ocean, North Atlantic Ocean, South Atlantic Ocean, Indian Ocean, Antarctic Ocean, and Artic Ocean.
