Ramona Owls

Trevor has just started to get into Beverly Cleary books. I'm thrilled, as she was my favorite author when I was in first grade back in 1978 (and for several years after that). The drive to my inlaws' cabin in Bear Valley is just over 3 hours, so Trevor and I checked out a Ramona audiobook for the drive up and a second one for the drive home.  


I paused the audiobook for a teachable moment:
Trevor: Nothing.  I wouldn't care.
Me: Why do you think it bothered Ramona?
Trevor: Can we make those owls when we get home?




Fold the flap down and glue in place.



Here is my Ramona Owl:

And here is Trevor's Ramona Owl:



  1. Those owls are AWESOME!! I am totally pinning this one.... Brookie's birthday is in Oct. and we doing a crafty bday party here!!! Loving the teachable moment! ;)

  2. Love the owls... My youngest is going to be an "only child" next week while her siblings are at camp and visiting my dad in Florida-she'll love to make this-- i'm sure she'll want to add some feathers (probably pink)!

  3. Ooooh...such a cute project! :)
    Love that you two enjoy the same books!

  4. I got such a laugh from your conversation with Trevor. Hee! Super cute project. They turned out great.

  5. I really love the conversation you had with Trevor. Especially since his mind turned right to crafting! Your little owls came out so cute!
