Paper Plate Pigeon – Children’s Book Themed Kid Craft

Have you seen all the fun and creative kid crafts we have been doing {and sharing on Glued To My Crafts} that are centered around our favorite children’s book?

Well – continuing on with the fun theme, today I have another EASY paper plate pigeon kid craft that goes along great with the book series by Mo Williems.

This tissue paper pigeon kid craft is not only super fun, simple and inexpensive BUT it also goes along perfectly with the Pigeon Presents series {our personal fav being – The Duckling Gets A Cookie!?}

So what are you waiting for? Grab your supplies, follow the step by step tutorial below and get to work. Don’t forget to raid your local library so you have some books to read in honor of you adorable paper pigeon creation!
