Winter Owl Handprint Craft

Some of the reasons we love handprint crafts is because they’re simple and cheap to make!

All you’ll need is some colored paper, scissors and glue. It doesn’t get much easier than that, right?

In case you’re curious, we prefer using colored card stock over construction paper because we love the vibrant colors of the card stock. If colored card stock isn’t an option for you, feel free to use construction paper!

Supplies

• Colored card stock (in black, yellow, white and gray)
• Scissors
• Glue stick (this kind works best with thick paper)
• Pencil
• Snowy owl craft template (download form located at the end of the page)

Download the snowy owl craft template, print and cut out the pieces.

Place the white owl face at the top of the owl body and glue in place.

Glue the owl’s beak so it’s halfway on the face and halfway on the body.

Make the owl’s eyes by gluing the black circle onto the larger yellow circles.

Place the completed eyes in the middle of the owl’s white face and glue down.

Glue the owl’s feet at the bottom of the owl’s body, letting half of the feet hang over the bottom of the body.

Trace your child’s right and left hands on the gray card stock and cut out.

Place your child’s handprints, one on each side, with the thumbs pointed up on each side of the owl body and secure with glue.

Isn’t that such a simple and cute winter keepsake craft?

Polar Bear Island is a fun book for winter! Polar bear island is just that – only for polar bears! That is until Kirby the penguin comes to visit. She turns the place around and adds tons of interesting excitement, but will the polar bears let her stay? You have to check it out and see for yourself!

Tacky The Penguin– This is a great book for children to learn about acceptance and valuing others for exactly who they are.

Owl Babies– A sweet book that teaches kids that Mom always comes back! It’s especially great for children who may have separation anxiety.
