its my turn to do crafts at toddler group next week and the theme is seaside things. my mind has gone blank has anyone got an idea of something i could do. it needs to be fairly simple and has to be suitable for 1-4 year olds!

Cut out a sand castle shape, glue it cover it in sand then use mini shell shaped pasta to stick on it as shells (what else :rolleyes: ) then a sitck to stick a triangle flag shape coming out the top.

There you have a sandcastle!!:thumbsup:

3D fish?

2 large cut out fish, decorate, staple/tape part way round, stuff lightly with scrunched paper/newspaper and staple/tape rest together.

Shiny bits to stick on for scales etc

Will think again:laughing:

Folded paper boats, (bit like paper pirate hats!)

You could get them to make sand castle pictures. Get them to glue the paper & put sand on then glue on a flag - we made these & mine really enjoyed it its simple enough for the really young ones to do :)

they sound really good but will do them at home instead of toddler group as the people we hire the room from can be a bit fussy about mess! can imagine sand everywhere:panic:
