First, we took a piece of black construction paper and glued on a strip of brown construction paper for the tree branch. Then I drizzled on the glue while Bekah added the cotton balls for the owls body. Bekah would tell me which owl she was making from the book. The three owls are Sarah, Percy, and Bill. We also got to talk about how the baby owls were white and fluffy while the mommy owl was brown.
Then we added the baby owls feet. These basically looked like upside down orange hearts.
We then added orange beaks and googly eyes to our owl babies.
I used colored pencils to add a moon and stars and our owl babies were finished.
The owls are terrific! I love the use of cotton balls for baby owls.
