When it comes to fall crafts for kids, there are plenty of themes to explore – from apples and making paper apple cards to leaf crafts and making crafts with animals like owls.
Does your child want to learn how to draw an owl? We have an easy-to-follow tutorial that shows you how to draw two different owls. Once finished, kids can color in a set of owl coloring pages to make the season even more fun! But let’s get back to doing this.
How to make owl crafts for kids
What you need:
- pencil
- drag
- glue
- black construction paper
- White paper
- colored paper (brown, yellow, orange, light orange and pink)
- markers (brown, white and black)
Step-by-step instructions
Background
Cut a large circle from black construction paper. If you don’t have construction paper, you can use regular black paper and glue it onto cardboard or you can paint the cardboard with black paint. Dark blue is also suitable for this owl craft.
Tree
Place a piece of brown paper on the edge of the circle and use the circle as a template to draw on the brown paper. Cut out the tree trunk shape and glue it to the black circle.
Cut a branch-like shape from brown paper and glue it onto the tree trunk. The branch should be placed in the lower half of the circle.
Moon
Cut a smaller yellow or white circle and glue it onto the branch. This will make the moon in the night sky.
Owl
We will make an owl from an orange circle. This circle must be larger than the moon.
Fold the circle on the right side, making an owl’s wing. Do the same with the right side.
Now, fold the top of the circle, just like you did with the right and left sides.
Apply glue to the back of the owl’s body (or onto black paper) and stick it to the branch.
Head
Cut two circles from white paper and one triangle from pink paper. Stick them on the owl’s head.
Use a black marker and draw two dots for eyes.
Feet
Take a smaller beige rectangle and fold it in half.
Draw a foot on the folded part and cut along the contour, this way you will get two owl feet that look the same.
Stick your feet into your scene.
Feathers
Let’s make this owl even more interesting. Cut triangles out of paper and glue them on or use a marker and draw any shape on the wings.
Finishing steps
Use a brown marker to create texture for the tree.
Use a white marker to draw small dots to create stars in the night sky.
