Feeling a little blue? Then make a bluebird! Seeing it soar will cheer you up in no time.

Materials:

Glue, Scissors, Paper clip, Pencil, Thread, Crayons, Blue construction paper

Instructions:

1. Fold the blue construction paper in half. Trace a pattern of a bird on the paper using the folded part of the construction paper as the bird's belly.

2. Carefully cut the bird shape.

3. Open the pattern and draw in the details of the feathers, eyes, and a beak.

4. Turn the bird over and apply glue to the body and head areas. Press together until dry.

5. To curl the wings, place a pencil under the wing and your thumb over the wing. Carefully pull the pencil along the wing. Repeat for the other wing. Be careful not to be too hard.

6. Tie a paper clip to a piece of string. Clip the paper clip to the back of the bird. Move the clip as needed until the bird is balanced.

7. You are ready to hang up your bluebird. The wings will float up and down in the breeze.
