Jonah and the whale

This craft activity is a lot of fun, even after you've finished making it! Jonah actually fits inside the whale.

What you'll need:
Tea bag box (that opens up and out on a long side)
Grey paper or card (otherwise white will be ok)
Toilet roll
Coloured paper
Pipe cleaner
Scissors
Glue
Grey and pink paint

Instructions:
Whale: Paint the tea bag box grey on the outside (if using white paper or card paint this grey on both sides). When dry, paint the inside of the box pink. The right side up for this craft is with the lid on top so that you can put Jonah inside without turning the whale upside down. Cut two two fins, stick to the sides and bend so that they sit out. Cut a tail shape and stick to back (I found it easier to cut out two shapes and stick them together from the curved end to about halfway. Then on the other end I stuck them to either side of the box at the back). Draw eyes and a blow hole on with a permanent marker.
Jonah: Glue a pink or skin coloured strip on paper around the top of the toilet roll for Jonah's face. Use another, wider and different coloured strip for Jonah's clothes. Make a hole on each side of toilet roll and thread through pipe cleaner. Using a brown strip of paper cut one long side into a fringe and glue to the very top of the toilet roll. Draw on a face.
