A 30–45 minutes craft for ages 5–10, using supplies you likely already have — Staplers, Scissors, and Pencils.
GlueStick supports kids from setup to cleanup. After they choose a project, we guide them through gathering the supplies, making it, and cleaning up when they're done. We'll even help them share it safely with trusted family and friends.
Ad-free and kid-safe library — designed by a mom who wants kids to explore and create independently.
Create a free GlueStick account to track supplies and see if you have what you need at a glance. Leave your kids tips about where supplies are stored in your household so they can set up and clean up their creative spaces independently.
Find a section of newspaper that is mostly print. You can also use the comics. Layer two pieces of newspaper. Draw a large oval with a pencil or marker, about the height of a folded newspaper turned on its side. Leave the bottom flat. Ask an adult to help you cut out the two ovals for the owl's body.
"Let's stick together and make this one!"
Put things away so your space is tidy for next time.
Check off each supply when it is put away — and any clean-up tips underneath are done too. You might find a fun surprise!
