Jellyfish crafts that are great for preschool activities! You can even play pretend aquarium with them.
Have you ever seen jellyfish at an aquarium or in the ocean?
Jellyfish can grow to about 30 centimeters in diameter, and most of their bodies are made of water.
This time, we’d like to introduce a fun jellyfish craft inspired by this popular sea creature!
It’s designed for ages 0 to 5, with activities suitable for each age.
It will stimulate children’s motivation and help them engage enthusiastically in the crafting process.
Once the crafts are finished, it would be great for teachers and children to play “aquarium pretend” together.
Be sure to make these cute jellyfish with the children!

Jellyfish mobile

Transform your room into an instant aquarium! Here’s an idea for a jellyfish mobile.
A mobile, simply put, is a hanging decoration suspended from the ceiling.
It’s loved not only as an interior item but also as an educational toy.
The materials you’ll use to make this mobile are plastic bags and raffia tape.
Shape the plastic into an umbrella-like form, then let strands of raffia tape hang down as the tentacles.
Using tapes in various colors will make it even more beautiful.
Making a tapestry of sea creatures
https://www.tiktok.com/@nono.seisaku.book/video/7515003842078051592Let’s make a summery “Sea Creatures Tapestry.” We’ll create three creatures: a fish, a jellyfish, and an octopus.
For the fish, put crumpled tissue paper into a clear plastic bag, tie it with a pipe cleaner, then secure the corners with tape.
For the jellyfish, stuff a clear plastic bag with tissue paper, shape it into a round form with tape, and attach shredded curling ribbon to make the tentacles.
Make the octopus the same way: put tissue paper in a bag and tie it with a pipe cleaner.
For the base, thread a string through a straw, wrap the straw with curling ribbon, and then attach the creatures to complete the tapestry.
In conclusion
When it comes to sea creatures that float and drift blissfully through the water, jellyfish come to mind.
This time, we introduced a jellyfish craft.
I hope that making jellyfish will spark children’s interest in marine life.
It looks like every project will be cute and fun.
All of the crafts can be made using everyday recyclable materials.
Anything missing can be bought at a 100-yen shop.
In your childcare activities, have fun expanding ideas with the children and try making some wonderful jellyfish!
