On a flat surface, use
a rolling pin or round
glue stick to flatten the
dough. Don’t make it
too thin.
Add the ingredients in a bowl and mix
well. Store extra dough in the fridge.

Use your fingers to smooth
out any rough edges.
Use the side of the toothpick
to cut out a fish shape.

Carefully peel away the extra dough.

Add a fish eye by rolling up a
little ball of dough and pressing
it in place.

Once your fish is dry, you can paint your fish
in bright, fun colours.
Carve out a fish mouth with
the side of your toothpick.
You can add lines to the tail by
pressing your toothpick into
the dough. This will make it
look more like a fish tail.

Here’s an easy way to create
fish scales: Take a straw, cut it
on an angle and press the straw
onto the dough. It makes perfect
fish scales! Make as many scales
as you want.

Set your fishy
friend aside to
dry overnight
A grape stem will make a great

the dough and set aside to dry.
