When I did this craft with the kids in the Montessori classroom, I set everything up at the art shelf with all the owl pieces in separate baskets. The kids made the owls independently, with a little help. It was mostly a painting and gluing activity. Some of the kids will need help with pressing down the roll to make the ears.Â
Annie and I had so much fun making these cute little owls. And it was really easy. Annie was able to do most of it with my help. She loved reading Five Little Owls together with the owls. The whole process of making the owls and then reading the rhyme with them made it come alive!
Children learn in different ways, for example, through music, the spoken word, and visually/spatially. Making a craft to go along with a poem or rhyme is a fantastic way to engage our little learners!Â
