Here's how…
1. Draw a template of a fish tail and two fins. Be sure to make a tab on both the tail and top fin to make it easier to glue to the Halo.
2. Trace the template and cut.
3. Cut out a tail shape from the glitter and glue on top of the tail.
4. Cut out curved slivers out of the paper and felt and glue as you like.
5. Glue on the tail and fins and then glue on the googly eyes.

For a playful way to show them off, we put the fishes in a large jar filled with blue confetti so that it looks like water! This is a super fun way to bring them into the classroom for snack duty OR to use as festive table decor for a kid's party. The kids can even help make them as part of an activity, then take them home after the party for a small snack later. They’re a convenient and healthy snack option that everyone will love!
