This is a paid promotion for Disney The Little Mermaid on behalf of Walt Disney Studios. The Mermaid Tail Craft was inspired by the movie, and opinions expressed about the film and the items we received are that of my own.
A couple weeks ago, Little Miss attended a Father/ Daughter dance and guess what the theme was? Under the Sea.
So needless to say, it was no surprise that she would want to make Sea Shell Jewelry, create Mermaid Tail Artwork, and watch the Anniversary Edition of Disney The Little Mermaid.
We watched The Little Mermaid from the Walt Disney Signature Collection last week and it was so much fun to stroll down memory lane.
Not only was I nostalgic because this film came out when I was 12 (I can’t believe it has been 30 years) but I think it was just as memorable for my daughter since she was impressed by the special features.
FYI, this Blu-ray also includes a sing along version and a bonus feature with Alan Menken and the Disney Leading Ladies that you won’t want to miss.
I actually had the pleasure of interviewing him a couple years ago as part of a Disney Beauty and Beast Event and it was awesome to see him again with these amazing actresses and performers.
My daughter then crafted Sea Shell Jewelry inspired by the film and afterward created a Mermaid Tail Craft.
To recreate her art, you will need the following:
- Card Stock paper
- Non-toxic Acrylic Paints
- Paint Brushes
- Safety Scissors
- Pencil
- Glitter
- …and an easy Mermaid Tail Printable that I made for her.
To make her Mermaid Tail Craft, she simply cut out the template and traced it onto her card stock with the pencil. Then, she painted the surface/seaweed and the water.
To finish, she painted the tail with green and sprinkled gold and green glitter while it was still wet.
After her painting dried and I shook off any access glitter and cut her Mermaid Tail Craft to fit an 8X10 photo frame for her room.
Did you see this film when it originally came out? What is your favorite song in the movie?
