This year (2015) Shark Week kicks off on Sunday, July 5th on the Discovery Channel. Can you believe the Discovery Channel is celebrating a quarter century of Shark Weeks? That’s a lot of shark watching! Whether you are fascinated or totally frightened by sharks, there is no escaping Shark Week. I think you and your kids will really enjoy the shark crafts I have rounded up.
Sharks have been getting a lot of attention recently with the recent shark attacks off the North Carolina coast. My son has always been fascinated by sharks, but I must admit that the scare me silly yet I find myself glued to the television during Shark Week.
Shark Week is a great learning opportunity for the whole family. To celebrate Shark Week, I’ve rounded up 20 fun shark crafts for kids. They are all so creative!
