Fun Animal Friday Owl Craft

This activity is a hoot!

Activity best for children age 2 and up

Today we met some really interesting animals with Pacific Animal Productions as part of our Fun Animal Friday. One of those animals was an owl. Owls have large eyes, sharp talons, and small hooked beaks. Their great eyesight helps them hunt for food at night. Animals who are active at night are nocturnal. Show off your big owl eyes and create a mask to celebrate these unique birds!

STEP 3
Cut two circles from a piece of paper. If you do not have colored paper, you can always color white paper with markers or crayons to create the color you need.

Optional: Add small cuts along the outside of your circles. This will make it look more like feathers.
