AdventurerKatziA fish with chestnuts in its belly.
In the back there are two fins for holding and helping to fill the fish with chestnuts. At the front the fish mouth is closed with another rubber band and keeps the filled chestnuts in the fish belly. By loosening the rubber the fish can "spew" the whole chestnuts again. A nice material, which is especially popular with crib children. Easy to manufacture and versatile in use. You can also fill with other things, such as marbles or walnuts, small wuschel balls or cotton balls.
Stay creative and try it out!

Relief in everyday life, targeted promotion of individual children, independent learning and - without any pre-knowledge already usable by the youngest!
Cut the fabric to the dimensions 25cm x 14cm.
Two rubber bands. For this I cut a hair rubber into three equal parts. Two of the three parts we use for the grips and one for the fish mouth.
Strip off the short sides of the fabric with zigzag stitch.
Then flip over an inch.
Then place the two parts of the hair rubber as handles. To do this, put them into a loop. Check out the picture.
You can also put pins on this before you sew.
Now you sew it on with a second seam. To do this, turn the fabric around so that you sew on the front of the fabric.
Line the other short side of the fabric also with a zigzag stitch. Then turn over another centimeter and then use the third hair rubber. Place it in the middle of the short side to a loop and then sew it as well.
Then you sew a second seam on both sides (i.e. both sides are sewn twice).
Now position the two same heads on the short side with the one loop. The two buttons serve as eyes and are sewn on. Attention: sew on the eyes before sewing the long side together!
The buttons can be fastened with the sewing machine or with the hand. I do it with the sewing machine and sink the transport feet (so the button remains quiet).
When the buttons are attached, put together the fabric lengthwise. The beautiful fabric side is now inside and the inside of the fabric looks at you.
With a straight stitch you sew the long side together. Then you line the edge with a zigzag stick.
Now you turn the sewn tube around.
That's the front of the fish.
Now put the fish on the back. On the back you sew on the big button. It is used to close the fish mouth with the rubber loop.
Now test which place the button has to lie before you sew it.
Take a needle and a thread and sew the button with your hand.
Now close your mouth.
Ready!
Now the fish can be filled with chestnuts.
You can open your mouth when the fish belly is filled, then all the chestnuts will go out again! Little children have a huge fun falling into the chestnuts and having them go out again.
Have fun trying it out!
A nice material for the autumn!
Suitable for playing with natural materials as well as for training fine motor skills and tactile perception.
It is especially beautiful when you have collected the chestnuts yourself!
