Instead of paper we found these pots, what a great shape for making owls, so we got the glue out and got sticking.
We started with the small pot and the stuck the feathers round the edge one by one the size of the pot was quite good as 1 feather covered top to bottom on it. Next we had to cover the top so we picked the fluffiest ones for the head and carefully stuck these on too.
Of course we hunted out our biggest roundest googly eyes and stuck these on with a little yellow beak. Sophie did a good job and mummy didn't get much of a go so made one to out of the bigger pot with Sophie's help, so now we have a mummy and baby owl.
We also had some coloured feathers and for fun we made a parrot (ish) bird this time we stuck the feathers pointing the other way up. he looks rather odd but fun and i think we prefer the Owls
