Pasos a seguir

Choose stones in shapes which remind of some animal. For example whales, piranhas and birds.

Paint the piranha. First red for the belly, then dark blue for the back, white for the eye and mouth, green and yellow strips and, finally, the black strips and teeth.

If you add a river background with blue crepe paper, you already have your river piranha

For the birds you have to paint the base on vivid colours, trying that the spots contrast among them. Make a silhouette in black of the wings, beak and tail. Put them on a sky background

Paint the whales grey. When the paint is friead, add the mouse and eyes white and finally the black strips of the teeth, the eyes, the flipper and the tail. Model with blue plasticine a water jet and glue it to the whale.
