Save this idea for later!

104shares

For me, something about summer just screams “ocean.” I love all things beach, saltwater, and sea life this time of year. I know I’m not the only one, because my Pinterest feed is currently filled with fun ocean-themed activities and fun for kids. I like to do more craft projects for kids during the summer in addition to STEM activities for kids, but this year, we’re going all out for the ocean. I’m also a big fan of using recycled materials as craft supplies, so you’ll often see us trying to make all kinds of things from egg cartons. I was so delighted at how cute this little egg carton narwhal craft turned out once my kids were done with it.

We made our narwhal all blue, but you could totally make a fleet of narwhals in all colors of the rainbow! Or make one that IS a rainbow! There is no limit to the creativity you can have with egg carton ocean crafts.

Glue the two halves together.

Cut out a tail, horn, and two fins from the top of the egg carton. Glue them to the narwhal.

Paint the narwhal’s body and tail one color, and the fins and horn a contrasting color.

Paint on a mouth and glue on googly eyes.

To get your narwhal to stand up, squeeze a blob of hot glue onto a piece of paper. Stick your narwhal into the glue and hold in place until the glue dries. Peel up the glue, and your narwhal can sand anywhere on its own!
