This month we are joining in Project: Recycle & Create and the material we have to use is bags, plastic or brown bags. We chose plastic bags(since we have so many and need to recycle them) and made a jelly fish!
We are having the theme ‘Ocean’ at school next week and will be decorating the school accordingly. We will be making more of these in class to hang all over the school.
Here is how we made it:
We took a paper plate and cut it in half. Plastic grocery bags were cut into strips.
The piece of bubble wrap went around the paper plate. We simply stuck it on with sticky tape.
Then the strips of plastic were also stuck on with the sticky tape.
And that’s it! So easy!
*UPDATE* My class’ jelly fish!
I am planning on cutting up more green and blue plastic bags to use as sea weed when we decorate the school. I will be updating this post with photos when we are done.
Come on over to see what other bloggers did with this challenge and add your own too:

They’ll really get a lot of great fine motor practice out if this . I’d love to see what the whole room looks like with these everywhere!
The plastic bags are perfect for jelly fish – good thinking!

Wow, this is really beautiful idea. I’ll do it with my little boy, so he can understand how to recycle. Thanks so much.
