Fish Hat BLM

Celebrate Book Week and become your favourite fish character with our FREE Fish Hat BLM!
  • Step 1 Print the template twice on A3 cover paper or cardboard. We have used cardboard for our fish hat. This will provide a good surface for decorating and a sturdy base for constructing the hat.
  • Step 2 Cut out your templates. Adult supervision is recommend when using scissors.
  • Step 3 Use patty pans as scales by cutting them in half and gluing them to the body of your fish template. We have also used glitter, wiggle eyes and a marker. Repeat on both sides. Allow to dry. Use the steps above as a decorative guide and mix up the techniques to create a unique combination of your own!
  • Step 4 Using the two strips from the template, measure around your head to make sure they fit and glue them together. This will be the headband of your fish hat.
  • Step 5 Glue the top fin of each fish template together. Allow to dry.
  • Step 6 Next glue the headband in between the two fish templates. This will insure that your hat stays on! Allow to dry.
