Owls In The Night - Paper Kid Craft Tutorial

Tree Branch & Owls At Night Paper Kids Craft Idea

Inspired by nature and my current love of owls – today I present to YOU our Simple Mixed Media Night Owl kids craft idea!

Using tree branch sticks we found in our very own backyard {hello FREE!} I was recently inspired to make a “night owl” scene with just some tissue paper, school glue and wiggle eyes. Nothing elaborate so it’s easy-peasy for younger kids and super inexpensive too!

I hope we inspire YOU and your child to recreate our quick and easy crafty idea! You can find ALL the details you need to know, in the full tutorial located below!

Happy crafting, my friends!!! Don’t forget to share pictures of your finished owls in the night creations with us by tagging us on Instagram to see! #gluedtomycrafts

  • Go ahead and cut out some small leaves from the brown cardstock & glue those in place as well.
  • Once that is done, add your owls in the scene by gluing down wiggle eyes and triangular cardstock noses in various spots.

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
