My kids love to play a game together involving a stuffed animal owl, so I knew they would go nuts for these easy owl puppets. We made two so that each sibling would have an owl to fly around.

To start, you’ll need two lunch-sized brown paper bags (ideally without any company writing on the front, but oh well…). I then cut out various features from colored construction paper, including triangle beaks, three sizes of circles for eyes, and a brown cut-out for each belly.

Travis loved helping glue down all the pieces with a glue stick, especially the three-layered eyes.

We added feather markings to the bellies with orange marker.

And that quickly, the owls were ready to play.

It was safe to say that the kids thought these puppets were a hoot!
