Make this adorable J for Jellyfish Craft using our Printable Template that’s perfect for a unit on sea life, ocean theme, Letter J activities or if you’re focusing on invertebrates & sea animals.

We move on to our next A to Z Alphabet Animal Craft with the Letter J.  This craft is from our eBook – A to Z Alphabet Animal Crafts for Kids. 

For a very long time, my daughter used to think a jellyfish was a fish that liked eating jelly just like her! So when she had to go to school dressed as a jellyfish, we added a visit to the aquarium to introduce her to a live one. She’s a big fan of these squiggly creatures from then on.

J for Jellyfish Craft with Printable Template

Jellyfish have lived in oceans for millions of years, even before dinosaurs lived on the Earth! Isn’t this a fun craft to help us learn a bit more about them?

Supplies needed to make this J for Jellyfish Craft:

 

  • Printable Template
  • Pink Felt or Construction Paper or craft foam sheets
  • Pieces of squiggly ribbons – Pink, green
  • An old CD
  • Scissors
  • Glue Gun or Glue stick if using paper.
  • Googly Eyes

Steps to make this J for Jellyfish Craft:

Print the Craft template on an A4 or Letter Sized paper. Cut out all the parts – the Pink body out of felt & all the pieces of ribbons. You can use riff-raff, crepe paper ribbon or even cloth scraps cut in long strips for the tentacles. Use the cutout template as your reference points and trace onto Felt. We used a 2mm stiff felt to make this craft. Alternately, you could use construction paper or craft foam in similar colors.

Glue the Body to the CD first. Then add the squiggly bits at the bottom. You could also use wool/yarn to make the tentacles. Finally, add googly eyes at the top and your Jellyfish craft is ready.

This printable J for Jellyfish craft is perfect for Kids aged 5 and above and improves their fine motor skills, visual perception, and hand-eye coordination. Parents and teachers can also make these at home or class and have their child or students assemble it independently. These crafts can be made by teachers and used as props, puppets, or even for classroom decoration.

If you homeschool, run a childcare, or teach any elementary aged kids, this J for Jellyfish Craft would be a great supplement to your Letter of the week curriculum. Add this fun craft project when you are studying about invertebrates, sea animals, the ocean, or Letter J.

Here are some fun facts about the Jellyfish

  • Jellyfish aren’t actually fish—they’re invertebrates or animals with no backbones.
  • Jellyfish are about 95 percent water, they have no brains, blood, or hearts.
  • Jellyfish have tiny stinging cells in their tentacles to stun or paralyze their prey
  • A group of jellyfish is called a ‘bloom’, ‘swarm‘ or ‘smack’

Here are some Books about Jellyfishes that go with this craft
