The American Eagle, is our country’s symbol and here’s an easy original pattern from the FreeKidsCrafts team that makes if fun for even the youngest crafter. January 10th is Save the Bald Eagle Day. What a great project to create awareness. This is an encore craft where we bring you the best crafts from previous years.

Trivia:

In 1940, noting that the species was threatened with extinction, Congress passed the Bald Eagle Protection Act, which prohibited killing, selling or possessing the species. A 1962 amendment added the golden eagle, and the law became the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. Source: U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service – Bald Eagle
