Here are some of the resources I found to help you make your own bald eagle unit study. This year, we added a little extra eagle study to prepare us for our adventures. DLTKs Crafts for Kids Bald Eagle Crafts and Activities for Children The bald eagle is the national bird of the United States. It is a family tradition that we always look forward to. We go out several times each winter to spot eagles in different locations. When the temperatures dip low enough for the rivers and lakes to freeze, eagles will gather at the dams for the open, ice-free water. That’s why areas near locks and dams are often great places to spot many eagles at one time. You can drive along the Illinois and Mississippi rivers and see lots of bald eagles, though they like to congregate where they can easily find their favorite food, fish. This gives us great opportunities to view these majestic creatures. Celebrate the United States National bird by crafting your own Bald Eagle canvas with craft sticks, feathers, wiggly eyes, and more Materials. Their migration here starts about mid-December and they leave again around March. Each winter, Bald Eagles return to our area of the country to feed on fish found in the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers. Winter is the perfect time of year here in Illinois for a bald eagle unit study. This is a very simple craft for young children to introduce a very special animal, the bald eagle, a United States national symbol and the national bird and prominently featured in the The Great Seal of the United States.
