Hands on Activity - Make your Own Bird Feeder

 

Make a Bird Feeder:


To make your own recycled bird feeder:

Supplies:

-       One toilet paper roll

-       One arm’s length piece of yarn

-       About 2 tablespoons of peanut butter or vegetable shortening

-       About 2 tablespoons of birdseed

-       Optional: a popsicle stick

How to make:

-       Spread vegetable shortening or peanut butter onto outside of toilet paper roll with a popsicle stick or your fingers

-       Sprinkle bird seed onto a paper plate, newspaper, or other surface that can get messy and roll your toilet paper roll in the bird seed so that it sticks to and covers the outside

-       Tie a piece of yarn through the toilet paper roll so you can hang your bird feeder on a tree branch or anywhere outside your house!

-       Watch some winter birds fly up for a snack!
