Parrot for a Pirate
- Total Time Needed:
- 1 Hour
A craft inspired by "Everything I Know About Pirates" by Tom Lichtenhel
Nothing befits a pirate-loving kid better than a parrot (although an eye patch runs a close second). These fanciful specimens, perched on the shoulders of their scurvy landlubber owners, were spied around town for days after they were created at my libraries in Idaho and Iowa.
