Do you love Shark Week? We do! My husband says that the newer Shark Weeks aren’t as good as the older ones, but my kids still enjoy it. Shark Week is fun for everyone, preschool to adults.

And like most things, I try to do an all-around, multi-sensory activities for an event. In other words, when it’s Shark Week, we don’t just watch TV.

Shark Week Crafts and Activities for Adults

Shark Week isn’t just for kids anymore. Think about what you can do as far as a pool party or gathering. There are so many possibilities. During the summer, in the workplace, many people take their vacation time and it can be pretty dull.

But, you can add in snacks, games and drinks to make it more fun.

Take a look at this idea from Made With Happy.

Here are more of the best Shark Themed Crafts and Activities I could find on Pinterest.

When is Shark Week?

Shark Week 2024 is July 7-13. You can find all the shows on the Discovery Channel.

Shark Week, the TV one, is always in the summer. It’s a great way to have fun in the summer while you’re at work or ESY.

If I didn’t link to instructions for a project, it’s because I couldn’t find them. Only the picture was available.

I figured some of you crafty types could either figure it out or modify it.

Shark-themed Snacks

Some of these snacks are perfect for the adult workplace too.

  • Gummy Sharks make a great treat to go along with your activities.
  • Shark Cookies (cute, they added a surfer to them)
  • Shark Cupcakes
