Ocean Themed Lanterns

Our community is having a lantern parade so I thought it would be nice to make laterns in my preschool class for those that might take part in the parade. Since we are in full blown ocean mode we of course chose an ocean themed lantern project.

Make it really easy on yourself and purchase lanterns at the dollar store!

My colleague cut out all sorts of ocean creatures from colorful tissue paper.

We then watered down some regular white elemers school glue and then helped the children paste on their selections.

Here's the end result! I think they will look amazing lit at night.
