If you’re looking for a simple and sweet craft to do with your kids, this summer you’ll want to try making this Whale Blow Painting!

This craft is easy to do and is a fun twist on your standard coloring sheet. Do this craft for an ocean/underwater-themed party, VBS, or even a Sunday School lesson on Jonah and the Whale. 

If you’re looking for more whale-themed crafts, snacks, activities, and a corresponding simple Bible lesson to do with your kids, check out this week’s Weekly Fun Plan: Jonah and the Whale.

Supplies:

Steps:

  • To start, print off my free Whale Blow Painting Coloring Sheet PDF.
  • Using markers, colored pencils, or crayons color in your whale.
    • Note: If you decide to color your whale with markers, you need to be extra careful with the next step (watercolor) so you do not smear your coloring. For this reason, I think colored pencils and crayons work best.
  • Next carefully place a few big drops of blue watercolor paint at the top of your whale where their blowhole would be.
  • Lastly, using a straw blow on the drops of watercolor paint spraying them up and away from your whale. This should now look like your whale is spraying water out of its blowhole. 
  • Once you have the splatter how you like it, set your picture aside to dry and you’re done!
