Keepin’ kids busy! Idea #2 totally rocks
Posted by andrea tomkins in: - Ottawa for kids|Easy ways to make kids happy|File under crafty|Oh! Things!
It all started yesterday when I doodled on a rock and gave it to my youngest daughter.
First, there was a family of rock owls in a cardboard nest:
And then there was a homeless family who found themselves out on the street (clearly victims of the increased amount of development and decimation of trees in our neighbourhood):
(Sidebar: the youngest actually put these out on the sidewalk near our house and was spying out the window to see if anyone would adopt an owl or two. She saw a little boy and his family pass by, take one, and then pose for a photo with it! So cute.)
After that our owls started to multiply like crazy. Small owls, big owls, baby owls, boss owls!
Frankly I think we may have run out of rocks.
If you try this wee crafty idea I’d love to see your rock owls! Share your link below if you do!
