Start Making Our Pebble Owl Family
Step One
The first thing to do is make sure our pebbles are clean and dry. Then we can decide which is going to be the front of our pebbles and how many you are going to have in your family.
Maybe paint a pebble to match all members of your real family.
Sometimes pebbles might have a funny hole or shape that will help us make a funny character. Once we have decided which pebbles we are going to paint. Let's start by painting the front of them all white.
Let the white paint dry.

Step Two
Now we can add some features to our funny pebble owls. Use the felt-tip paint pens or a small paintbrush and start painting some details.
Start with the eyes and paint patterns and flower shapes for more details. Paint large eyes and a small beak for our owl face.
Use bright colours and have fun painting. If you make a mistake don't worry. Let it dry, then paint over it with white and start again.
