Craft: Making Paperplate Owl

When we were learning about this nocturnal bird, my boys worked hard on this craft. 

I provided the materials and just let them get on with it. They picked their own colour combinations and went on to decide on their birds' appearances. 

When they were done, I was so impressed with what they produced. I especially love the spots and white rims. Even my 2.5yo put in an amazing effort over the two days to complete his craft.

How do you come out with such creative things to do with your children? Where you get your ideas?

Hi Winnie, thanks! :) Are you the one who attends my lapbooking class?

Believe it or not, the inspiration just comes to me sometimes when I look at something. In this case, I wanted to make a craft on owl and I always prefer to use materials that I already have.

You will be able to gather lots of ideas from the lapbooking classes. And trust me, very soon you will find that the ideas and inspiration just come to you so easily! :)

Hi domesticgoddess

Just want to say thanks for the brilliant idea! We just made this craft at home, though I substituted the beak with just a cardboard. Thanks for sharing your craft ideas! I love them all.

My gal painted hers bright red and insisted on spots like what your son has made. :D
