Birds of a Feather Bookmark
Instructions to make a bookmark that looks like a bird.

Materials Needed:

  • Tongue Depressor
  • Paint or Markers
  • Glue
  • Felt
  • Small Wiggle Eyes
  • Feather
Instructions:
Paint the tongue depressor with whatever color you want the bird to be. Cut a small triangle out of yellow or orange felt and glue it onto the painted tongue depressor where you want the beak to be; then, glue on the wiggle eyes (figure 1). Turn the tongue depressor over and glue the feather onto the back (figure 2). Set aside and let the glue dry.
