The Owl
There's a wide eyed owl (thumbs and forefingers around eyes)
~Submitted by Cheryl's Sweethearts ChildCare
With a pointed nose, (forefinger makes a v at end of nose)
Two pointed ears, (forefingers extended up from head)
and claws for toes, (fingers and arms bent in front of chest)
When he sits up in the tree, (point to tree)
and he looks at you, (point at a child in the group)
he flaps his wings, (fold arms into arm pits and flap)
And he says 'Whoo Whoo.'
Paper Plate Owl
You will need: large paper plates (the kind with the ridged edges), circles
of orange construction paper for eyes, V-shaped pieces of orange construction
paper for bills and claws, a magic marker, brown tempera paint, and glue.
Use the magic marker to draw cutting lines on each paper plate at 10, 2, 5
and 7 o'clock, and along the inner edge of the ridges (these will be the
wings). Have the children cut their plates on the lines, then have them paint
the pieces of the paper plate with brown tempera paint and let dry. Staple
the owl's wings to the bodies for the children (or use brads for more
moveable wings). Have the children glue the eyes, beaks and claws onto their
owls.

Bag Owls
Loosely stuff a bag full of crumbled newspaper. Bring the top together & fold
the two outer edges in toward the center & glue to form a point. Fold the
point down. Cut eyes & feet from construction paper & glue to the owl. Big
grocery bags will make grandfather owl, small candy bags turn into baby owls,
& all sizes between are the flock! The kids love playing with these!

Snow Owl
Materials: large paper plates, glue, stapler, black markers or black crayons,
children scissors, 3 small triangles, black buttons
What to do: Fold and staple the paper plate and cut along dotted lines being
careful not to cut through the back of the plate. Unfold the wings. Have the children cut fringes on wings, head and tail. The children may use a black crayon or marker to make the eyes or use the two black buttons. The children may glue on two yellow triangles for ears and one for the beak. The owls can be
mounted on a large tongue depressors to make owl puppets.

On a paper plate give the children a circle of meat (the owl's head), can be
bologna or others like turkey. Next a triangle of American cheese (one square
cut in half). Place the cheese, triangle pointing down on the top half of the
circle head (this forms the ears and the beak). Next place two Ritz circle
crackers for eyes on each side of the beak. Last, place two olive circles on
top of the cracker for pupils. The children can add other bits of veggies,
too.
