Sea Life Paper Craft

Clam and Starfish

feature clam and starfish craft

Make this cute paper starfish and clam craft for kids, so that your little ones can imagine having fun living under the sea. 

When I was a kid, I loved exploring the tide pools near my home to look at the beautiful sea creatures that lived there.

I regularly saw starfish and clams, but never did find a pearl.

That didn’t stop me from exploring and enjoying the adventure of a magical day in nature.

This clam craft is great for preschoolers to make with some help, and for bigger kids who can complete the project on their own. 

You can either print the pieces using the same colors as mine or you can choose your own realistic or wacky color combination. 

It is beautiful, if you do the whole craft complete with the dreamy watercolor ocean background. 

But you can also do just the clam with or without the starfish. 

They can be displayed on a bulletin board or mounted on a plain piece of cardstock or poster board. 

Have fun under the sea!
