Craft: Owl Mask
These were some of the easiest masks we've made in story time. The eyes were much easier to cut out in these. The kids simply colored and glued the various pieces (face, eyebrow feathers, beak) together before gluing on a stick handle.
Literacy Extensions:
- Have a discussion with your child about the different fears you have. Suggest ways to handle those fears.
- One common fear for children is a fear of the dark. On a nice evening take your child outside to look at the stars. See if you can identify any constellations. Reassure your child that the stars and constellations are always there at night -- just sometimes they are behind the clouds.
