Make a paper fan with wave and ocean designs this Ocean Day. It is a creative and refreshing activity that will brighten up your days. To begin, gather the necessary materials: white sheets, Ocean’s Life markers from Maped to recall the nuances of the ocean, glue, adhesive tape and wooden sticks for the handle. You can recycle ice cream sticks for example!
- A4 White Paper
- Glue
- Wooden Sticks
- Felt Tip Markers
- Adhesive Tape
- Cotton Thread
Steps
Step 1
Download and print the templates. Using markers, colour the template representing waves or a seabed.
Step 2
Colour the 2 printed templates using the same colour scheme.
Step 3
Fold the 2 sheets following the dotted lines. Press well to mark the folds.
Step 4
With the adhesive tape, fix the 2 sheets together, fold them, then fix again with a cotton thread, as in the photo.
Step 5
To hold the fan, glue the sticks to the edge, on one side and the other of the last fold.
Step 6
The fan can now close, then open!
Step 7
Shake it to make wind! These ocean-themed fans are also very useful and fit easily into a bag!
