Summary: A fun retelling on the story of Jonah and the whale ~ from the whale’s perspective!

 

What You’ll Need:

• blue craft foam {two shades if preferred}
• white and black craft foam
• scissors
• optional large wiggly eye
• pen and pencil

How to Make the ‘w’ for whale:

1. Cut out a lowercase ‘w’ from a piece of blue foam sheet. To make the letters go along with the uppercase letters we’ve done in the past, this letter was cut from a piece of foam that was about 6” x 4”.
2. Using a piece of blue foam 8 1/2” x 5” in size, cut out a body for the whale.
3. Cut a 1 1/2” circle out of white craft foam for the bottom of the whale’s eye.
4. Cut an 3/4” oval out of black craft foam for part of the whale’s eye and a small white circle for the center of the eye.
5. Glue the lowercase w onto the whale’s tail.
6. Glue the eye onto the whale.
7. Draw a mouth on your whale.
