Free Printable Blue Whale Craft

Sea Life Paper Craft

Make this cute printable blue whale craft with your kids, so that you can have some under the sea fun while you are at home.

Living in Southern California, I have had the pleasure of seeing whales off the coast many times over the years.

Earlier this year I got to see a blue whale up close and personal, when she swam alongside us during a whale watching trip.

It was amazing to see, and it was fun when a few dolphins joined in to play with her.

Blue whales grow to be about 80 feet long and can live for 80 or more years in the wild.

This paper craft is great to make just for fun or you can combine it with a homeschool lesson on ocean life.

The watercolor background is optional, but it looks fantastic, especially if you plan to keep the craft on display for a long time.

Little kids will need some help, but bigger ones may be able to complete this craft all by themselves.

Enjoy this under the sea activity!
