Ocean Crafts for Preschool

Kids love learning about the ocean and making ocean-themed crafts. Over the years, I’ve compiled many ocean activities for preschool, but I’ve never sat down and created a good list of just my ocean crafts for preschool. Now that it’s summer, many parents are at home with their children looking for fun easy peasy summer crafts for preschoolers. The summer is a great time to spend a little one-on-one time with your child making something extraordinary, like these preschool ocean crafts! Ready for the list?

Glittery Shells, why not make something pretty even better with some glitter. You can find earth-friendly glitter here.

X-ray Fish are so simple to make.  This is one of my favorite fish crafts. Have your child or students cut the bones from larger pieces of paper to work on scissor skills.  If you teach Prek or kindergarten this is a great x-themed craft to try!
