Cute Owl Craft From Dollar Tree

I came across this adorable owl craft kit at our local Dollar Tree store. Just had to share it with you! 🙂

This is a great, simple craft kit that you can do with the kiddos. All you need to complete it is some glue.

There are no written instructions, but you can easily make this owl just by looking at the picture on the package.

These are the pieces inside the package. There are a few pieces you will need to punch out of the felt and then you’re ready to create!

I started with the eyes, first putting the white felt piece in place and then adding the 2 black eyes. You can aim the eyes in the direction you like best. 😉

Next I added the headband, feathers and the beak.

Then I added the tummy and 2 wings.

And your cute little owl is finished! 🙂 Super simple and super cute! And the best part is, it only cost $1.25! (plus tax) Great little project for fall! 🙂

Drawing Owlvin Owl for Kids

How about some drawing fun today? Owls are such awesome animals that I think it would be great fun to draw one. As the title of this blog post tells you, I named my owl Owlvin. (Of course, you can name your owl something totally different.) Grab a piece of paper and a pencil and let’s start with a nice plump oval shape which will be the owl’s body.

Next we’ll add a wing on each side of the body.

Add 2 circles towards the top of the oval for eyes. And put a little black dot inside each circle.

Draw a triangle for a nose and add a little mouth.

Let’s add a couple of little tufts at the top of his head.

Now you can add a little tummy.

Draw 3 toes on each side for his feet.

A few lines can be added to make him look more like he has feathers.

Once you have the drawing just the way you want it, you can go over all the lines with a black pen or fine line black marker.

After the ink is completely dry, you can very lightly use an eraser to remove any leftover pencil marks that you can see. Last but not least, give your owl some color.

All finished! Great job! What color is your owl? And what did you decide to name him or her? I hope you’ve had fun learning to draw owls! 🙂
