Summer crafts are some of my favorite (a close second to my favorite season...fall), and what could be better than these sea animal crafts?

The really unique thing about these ocean animal crafts (and you might have already noticed) is that each starts with the simple shape of a triangle.

The cicadas are coming! I have mixed feelings about it. It is so cool to think about bugs that somehow wait 17 years and then all emerge together, just to disappear a few weeks later for another astounding 17 years.
