Finding Dory Paper Craft
Blue Tang
This cute and colorful blue tang craft is perfect for Pixar Finding Dory fans, since this is the same type of fish as Dory.
It has a free printable template, so it is fun for all ages and easy on the budget.
Blue tangs really are beautiful fish with their bold colors that stand out in the wild.
To protect themselves from predators they hide in crevices in rocks or coral, so that they won’t be seen.
The craft is great as part of educational lessons on sea life and conservation, but can also be made just for fun.
Make the fish craft as part of a Finding Dory movie night or birthday party or make it as your kids get excited about an upcoming tropical vacation.
Print the template. Cut out the pieces and assemble with glue.
You can follow all of my instructions to paint a water color background for your Dory look-alike or you can skip the painting and hang it up as is.
Have fun!
