Owl Sees Owl: Fall Nature Activities

November 10, 2017 By Dani Wagner 2 Comments

Fall is a fantastic time to explore, not only are the leaves beautiful, but there is so much going on to enjoy. Owl Sees Owl by Laura Godwin and Rob Dundavey is an adorable short, but sweet book that will get you thinking about Fall and Owls.

Owl Sees Owl is perfect for preschoolers with only four words per page. This cute story follows a baby owl as he leaves his nest and family and explores the world around him. Halfway through the book the baby owl is startled and the story reverses until he is safely back home in his nest.

Owl Sees Owl 

Fun activities both indoor and outdoor to go along with Owl Sees Owl.

Books:

  • Read Owl Babies by Martin Waddell. There are some crafts below to go along with this book.
  • Owls by Gail Gibbons is a fantastic nonfiction book to learn about owls with your little ones.
  • Read Owl Moon by Jane Yolen.

Nature Walk Activities:

  • Collect feathers on a nature walk.
  • Watch this video about Owls. 
  • Take a walk down to a pond, river, or stream and observe your reflection in the water just like baby owl does in the book. 
  • Talk about nocturnal animals. Take an evening walk and try to spot any nocturnal animals that might be out. 
  • Discuss onomatopoeias and try to spot them in the book. Take a walk and discuss the sounds you hear in the woods around you. 

Crafts:

  • Use the printables from Patties Classroom to create an Owl puppet.
  • Use the feathers you collected (or craft feathers) to paint with.
  • Make handprint owls using the handprints as wings.
  • Create a baby owl using cotton balls and white paint.

    These are some really sweet ideas. I like that they aren’t artificial “this is something we’re doing because it’s school” stuff. Instead, they’d be easy to incorporate into daily life.

      Thanks Michelle. We try to keep the artificial to a minimum! I love activities that we can do as we play!
