Homemade Bird Feeders

We are still up in the mountains so we decided to do a homemade bird feeder. Carter was a little disappointed that we were not actually making one out of wood but I promised him he could make something tomorrow using a drill, hammer and wood. He was ok with this. We found this on pinterest and now I cannot find it to post the link but it was easy and I think it was a hit!

BIRD FEEDER
Items Needed:
Empty Toilet Paper Roll
Birdseed
Peanut Butter

Take the toilet paper roll, have the kids spread Peanut Butter all over it and then roll in birdseed, sprinkle and fill the gaps! Then simply hang it on a branch! No rope needed!




Such Concentration!









Callen had a lot of fun sprinkling the birdseed on the peanut butter. He was very interested in how it felt. We checked on it and the blue jays are eating it! Every time I try to take a picture of the Jay though he leaves when he hears me approaching! Great Project for a 2 year old! Carter did the peanut butter and Callen did the seed. Great Team!! :
Finished Feeder!
