Tonight we read The Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister. Then, we made our own rainbow fish.
I asked Aidman how we could make them and he said that we needed to paint a fish blue, green, and purple and then add glitter (I was thinking tin foil, but his idea was better).
Here Aidman is cutting out his fish, notice the tounge.
Lyssy cut her fish alittle too much, and then asked Mommy to cut one for her.
Then we got started painting.
Daddy even decided to join the fun. He wanted to make a shark instead.
The tounge again.
We were all so proud of our work.
Daddy caught a SHARK!!

This is one of my daughter's favorite books too. Great idea!
That is cool Eric got involved, he looked like he was having fun! Aiden's tounge thing is funny! And Lyssy's face in that one pic is priceless!
Those came out beautiful! I love the colors! You could also add a tin foil scale just like rainbow fish!
How fun! (and you look so young, I was looking for YOUR photo...)!!! :)
