Paper Roll Bird Feeders
It dawned on me that January is bird feeding month and these poor creatures could use some food. So why not have your students create these simple bird feeders.
Materials:
Paper rolls (toilet paper, paper towel, or wrapping paper cut into smaller pieces)
Peanut butter (no sugar added)
Bird Seed
paper plates or newspapers
plastic knives
Directions:
1. Sprinkle bird seed on paper plate or newspaper
2. Spread peanut butter using plastic knife onto paper roll (or you could roll the paper roll in peanut butter) For a sensory experience spread the peanut butter with your hands!!
3. Roll the paper roll covered with peanut butter in bird seed. (Pat it on just for fun!)
4. Once the paper roll is covered with bird seed run a piece of string or yarn through the roll and hang it on a tree limb.
5. Watch the birds enjoy the seed!
