    We’ve done all sorts of crafts with Goldfish crackers (sorting, counting, etc), and I knew the Goldfish “Colors” variety would make a perfect rainbow and Easy St. Patrick’s Day Craft!

    Kids love Goldfish crackers and they are the perfect size for little hands to hold and glue down, with minimal assistance.

    And the best part? It’s super easy. Totally my type of craft! You just need the template (grab it HERE), Goldfish “Colors”, any type of glue (we used regular school glue), and a few puffy cotton balls.

    I would definitely recommend liquid glue over a glue stick, it’ll help the little fishies adhere to the paper. 

    And be sure to buy plenty of Goldfish crackers as some snacking happens during the crafting! It’s all a part of the fun.

    Directions for Goldfish Craft:

    1. Lay out the template and supplies
    2. Start gluing the Goldfish crackers, one by one onto the template.
    3. Finish off with the cotton ball clouds.
    4. Allow to dry and display proudly!

    I did this activity with the kids, and it was really quite relaxing! It’s fun to line up each color on the template and glue it into place, watching the design pop with color. And my younger daughter (age 4) was totally able to keep up. The finished designs are so fun & festive, don’t you agree?

      These are so cute! I think I’d do it without the glue so the kids could eat the fish after. 🙂 And I wouldn’t have to keep 6 crafts forever. 🙂
