I'm sure you've seen this "craft" many times. Today we made little bird feeders out of toilet paper rolls.
We talked about what birds eat this morning. It's been raining on and off for a few days so we have seen the worms on the sidewalk, and the kids already knew birds ate bird food. We started making our little bird feeders by having the kids spread peanut butter on toilet paper tubes.
When they were finished they looked like this.
After wiping hands, the kids rolled their tubes in a plate full of bird seed.
This afternoon we will hang them from a tree branch and watch to see if any birds eat from them. We also dumped the extra bird seed that was on the plate into the yard. The kids keep looking out the window to see if the birds are eating the seeds yet.
Update: The rain has stopped so we were able to hang out bird feeders.
