Who doesn’t like making fall crafts with owls! While we may have owls around our areas all year long , fall is the time of year we wait to do units and activities that focus on owls. I have previously shared two owl crafts. The first one featured an owl made of leaves. Second owl craft has an owl with cupcake liner eyes.
Along sharing my fall crafts with owls I want to share some awesome owls that have been created by others. After checking them out, I won’t be surprised if you didn’t have your children create a whole series of owl crafts.
At the end of this post you will find a number for children’s books with an owl theme.( I love tying together crafts and books.) The crafts can be used for story retelling or just as a story extension.

Owly is a fun graphic novel that contains two stories for kids. The first called ” The Way Home” shares how Owly helps his friend Wormy find his way home after a storm.

Little Owl spends the night visiting his friends who are awake at night. What fun he has! He can’t imagine why other animals would sleep through the night.
This simple board book was passed down to us from my sister Kate’s kids. It is filled with simple rhymes and cut out that gives hints as to what is coming up next in the book.
