Then why not try one of these activity ideas:

  • Can you think of 4 things that live under the sea?
  • Draw a picture of an animal that lives under the sea
  • Sing the Nursery Rhyme 1,2,3,4,5, once I caught a fish alive
  • Go for a walk and find something in nature to give to a friend to make them happy.
  • When he was sad the Wise Octopus gives the Rainbow Fish some very good advice, who do you talk to when you are sad?
  • Rainbow Fish might have given away all his prized scales, but he has loads of friends. Talk about what you think is most important, scales or friends.
