Fingerprint Whale 

The picture to the right is a photograph of the finished craft.  

I made a white whale on blue construction paper.  You could also make a blue or grey whale on white construction paper.

Directions:

Body:  Stamp your thumb in white paint and make a firm thumbprint sideways on the paper for the whale's body  

   
Tail:  Dip the tip of your pinkie in the white paint and make two light pinkie prints at the end of the thumbprint in a sort of a heart shape      
Water:  Dip your index finger in blue or green paint and make firm prints under the whale for the water
Spout:  Use a toothpick, q-tip or small paint brush to draw a few lines above the whale as the spout

Extras:

Add some clouds and a sun to spruce up the picture  

(gentle yellow finger print for the sun)

(three white finger prints in a row with two white finger prints in a row just above = cloud)
