Real goldfish?
In all seriousness, you can get a bag with pictures of fish on it.

I once did wooden boat with tuna can. Fishing rod from pretzel & string licorice attached to sachet net bag with fish croutons inside. A pail with rock candy for ice & jelly fish in it. Pebble choco candies topped with treasures like candy bracelets, gold coin chocos.

Don't do that! In this day and age, anything like that will go straight into the garbage.

Why?

One assumes that all reasonable hygienic precautions were taken.

attached are cdc guidelines for food and covid

I find it interesting that either people seem to completely disregard science (no sd, precautions) or they disregard it in the opposite direction by taking precautions that have nnothing to do with science

Here’s a little poem I just wrote, just to give you an idea . You can change it up to your liking.

It’s Purim today and we are going “diving”
We are checking out “sea life” and how it is thriving

Today we are diving in dedication
To commemorate the reason for today’s celebration

Purim is an extra special diving day you “sea”
We are celebrating a happy day in our history

When the situation “sea”med so terrible for the Jews
Things changed suddenly with wonderful news

It was the day when King Achashvairosh realized Haman’s “fishy” plans
And stopped Haman in his tracks and cancelled all his commands

That “shark” was the most honored
man and that suddenly stopped
He took a nose “dive” down as his position of power dropped

There was a vnehapachu and things “flippe(r)”ed around
Everyone was “swimming” in smiles and nobody frowned

So that’s why today we don our “wetsuits”and our “tank”
And we “dive” into happy times and funny pranks

We want to wish you a “Sea”mchas Purim on this memorable day
As Mazal Adar “Dagim” comes our way.
