For the Birds

In the Discovery Lab today we talked about what animals eat in the fall when the weather begins to get colder, days get shorter, and many plants die.  We decided we could help our feathered (and furry) friends get ready for winter with birdfeeders.  Kids could choose to make a pinecone birdfeeder during centers today.

First, we spread some cooking lard on the pinecones...

They worked hard at filling all the nooks and crannies...



Rolled it and patted it in birdseed...




and, the finished feeders!









There are going to be a lot of lucky birds out there!  Hope you and your kiddo can watch what comes over for a bite!
