This week I had my first day leading Forest School with young children. I needed to have a simple activity that we could all do from age 3 to 6. So we first of all made simple bird feeders by threading cereal. Obviously I could only film myself making one but the ones in the trees were made by the children:
Then out in the forest we took bread, spread peanut butter on and dipped them into bird seed:
All the children really enjoyed making the feeders and we just have to hope that when we go out next week we can see whether they have eaten them all!
Hope our birds enjoy our labours
ReplyDeleteWe did this last winter and the birds loved them. Such a great winter activity and helping out the birds as wel #countrykids

ReplyDeleteThis is such a simple but brilliant idea, I’m going to try this with my lot! #countrykids
