A colorful and creative paper plate craft depicts a mother bluebird and her three baby bluebird chicks nestled in a handmade nest. The nest is formed from a paper plate cut in half, with twine or yarn woven through holes punched around the edges, giving the appearance of twigs and grassy nesting material. The mother bluebird is crafted from blue, white, and orange craft foam pieces, with a large blue circle for the body, a white circle for the belly, and a smaller blue circle for the head. Her beak is formed from an orange triangle, and googly eyes add a whimsical touch. The three baby bluebirds are similarly constructed with smaller blue circles for their bodies and heads, orange beaks, and googly eyes. Craft feathers are glued to the birds to represent wings, completing the charming scene.
