Bird Book Mark


So easy and doesn't take a lot of stuff to make, I incorporated this craft with a picture book about books but you could do something about birds. If you are a Cardinals fan like me it could be a St. Louis style craft.

What you need:
craft sticks
markers or paint
glue 
wiggle eyes
feathers

Color your craft sticks and I drew on the beak but you could glue on a piece of construction paper or felt. Then I glued on wiggle eyes and the feather on the back.
You may notice that most of my crafts are pretty simple and that is because I have children attend my programs that are between 4 and 10. I like for the kids to be able to do most of it themselves

If you have any questions or suggestions feel free to comment!
