What to do with kids in fall holidays? Have fun and be creative!
Fall holidays are off on in full swing, my five kids are at home and it’s not easy to offer them varied programs. We spend a lot of time in the fresh air, but when the weather is chilly and rainy I need something creative to make them sit down not to blow up our apartment in five minutes.
My kids love animals, but at home we have no pets and if it’ up to me we’ll never have any. Make no mistake, I like pets, but not in a fifth-floor apartment. To lessen the opposition between us I found out to create animal shape bookmarks and fridge magnets during the holidays. Besides, these objects will be perfect for the coming school fair.
Let’s see how to make them!
Fox bookmark and owl fridge magnet
Supplies (owl fridge magnet)
- white modelling clay
- marker cap
Instruction
- first shape a ball from the clay
- smoosh to make a circle
- use the marker’s cap to make UUUUUU on belly
- fold the left and the right side in
- fold the top down and pinch a bit the ears
- use the marker cap to make eyes

- you can smoosh sides a little bit to make owl more round
- let it dry
- finally when it dried, turn the owl and glue a magnet on the back
