Jelly Fish Facts

Today we were finishing up our Jelly Fish.
We found out a little about them.

Jelly fish have been around since before dinosaurs.
They are made up 95% water.  It surrounds them.  If you were to remove the water, the jellyfish would collapse and die.
They can be found in cold and warm parts of the ocean and at the coastline.
Jellyfish sting with their tentacles to
 paralyze (can't move) their prey before they eat them.  Their mouth is located on the underside of their bell shaped bodies.
Jellyfish have no brain, no blood 
and no nervous system.
Just a few tidbits I thought you might enjoy.  It will also give you something to talk to your kids about on the way home.








We are going to hang the 
finished Jellyfish in our playroom.
They will go great with our ocean.
