This is a really cute idea for a kids' party or simply for fish lovers! The prep time includes the time for Jell-O to set. Please note the extra supplies mentioned in the directions that you will need if you want to make it a more authentic aquarium. Enjoy!

Time 3h

Yield 8 cups, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 (3 ounce) boxes jello berry blue gelatin mix
3/4 cup green grape, washed
3/4 cup blueberries, washed
1/2-1 cup gummy fish (you can use a mixture with gummy sharks or frogs)

Steps:

  • Prepare 3 packages of Jell-O gelatin in a large bowl as directed. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until Jell-O is partially set, but still a little "liquidy".
  • Clean a NEW 1/2 gallon glass fish bowl, preferably the kind that is flat on the front and back.
  • Add grapes and blueberries to bottom of fish bowl, spread evenly.
  • Layer gelatin and gummy fish. You can poke gummies down with a spoon or your fingers to look as though they are randomly swimming in the water.
  • Refrigerate 1/2 hour until better set.
  • Display fish bowl with flashlight propped behind it to better see the display of fish.
  • When ready to serve, you can use a washed NEW fish net to scoop the fish and fruit out, along with the Jell-O. Some kids might think this step is "gross", so make sure that your kids are OK with it.
