Owl Paper Bag Puppet for Kids
Paper Bag Owl Craft For Kids
Today I am sharing a super cute and easy Paper Bag Owl Craft for kids that are sure to be a winner as an activity at home, in the classroom or preschool setting. We love owls here at The Inspiration Edit. In fact, I love Owls.
My grandmother Rae collected Owls ornaments when I was a child and I remember making her owl pictures and buying Owl themed items for her as I grew up.
Grandma still loves Owls and so do I now. Today I’ve combined our love of owls with our love of crafting to share this paper bag craft idea! Enjoy!
