Pinecone Bird Feeder
Materials:
- Pinecones
- Yarn, ribbon or string
- Birdseed
- Peanut butter
- Knife or spoon
1) Tie yarn or string securely around the end of the pinecone.
2) Using a knife or the back of a spoon, cover the pinecone with peanut butter.
3) Roll the pinecone in birdseed. An easy way to do this is to pour the birdseed onto a plate.
4) Tie the birdfeeder to a tree and let the birds enjoy eating and the children enjoy watching.
Hint: If you are doing this with a large group of children, consider using paper plates to pour the birdseed onto. Also use plastic knives or spoons as this will make cleanup a breeze.
