Make and Take Craft: Little Mermaid Coloring Sheets

Even though we didn't hear her story during story time, the Little Mermaid is one of the most famous stories to come out of Denmark. For our craft, I drew up some mermaid coloring sheets.

Supplies:
-coloring sheets (I didn't save any of the one I drew, but here are some from the internet)
-crayons

Process: You know how this works.

Time: Prep took about 5 minutes to draw and run off copies of a mermaid, the craft took 10.
