The kids will have so much fun with this fish threading activity! It’s a great way to work on hand-eye coordination with a simple fine motor craft! 

The fun part about this fish threading activity is that the kids can play with it over and over again. Threading is such a great fine motor activity because they’ll be using their hands and minds during the process! 

Once they get the hang of threading – be ready! The next thing that they’ll want to learn is how to tie their shoes – and this threading activity makes it an easy transition. 

If you’re ready for an activity that combines art and learning, this is what you’ve been waiting for!

What else will the kids learn with this printable activity? 

Threading is the main activity for the kids to do, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t think of other things. Since you can print these out on any color of paper, that means that you can have the kids work on their color skills as well. 

Have them talk about colors and learn how to identify colors. They can also count the number of times that they wrap the string or yarn around the fish to help work on counting skills as well.

Is it hard to thread? 

Its’ not hard, but the kids will need to pay attention to the directions in the beginning. They’ll get the hang of it in no time and be repeating the threading pattern over and over again! 

Lacing cards are another really fun activity that I suggest pairing up with this one!
