Moray Eel Craft with Free Printable Template

Sea Life Paper Craft

This bright and happy moray eel craft is absolutely adorable, but I would not want to accidentally disturb an eel in the ocean.

These long, snake-like sea creatures often hide in rocky crevices, so can be hard to notice when you are snorkeling or scuba diving.

When they feel threatened, their strong jaws and sharp teeth can do damage to marine or human predators.

This cute moray, however, is not going to hurt anyone or anything!

The craft is a fun activity for any child who is interested in sea life.

You can help your child make a moray eel just for fun or as part of a homeschool lesson.

Use the same colors that I did or let your child choose their own color combination.

Have fun!
