Yesterday after we came in from a morning of crabbing Nixie wanted to learn more about the ocean so we spent a little time learning about which animals live in which layers of the ocean and made this Layers of the Ocean craft.

How To Do It

1. Begin by adding a layer of Modpodge to the bottom of your container with a paintbrush and then add the strips of black tissue paper. Then add more mod podge on top of the black tissue paper. Continue in the same way with the next colour being the darkest blue moving your way up to the lightest blue.

2. Next write down the different layers on labels and attach them to their correct spot.

3. finally, add the animals!
