Use a brightly colored ribbon so the birds can easily find the bird feeder, and hang it on a tree by a window so your kids can watch different types of birds enjoy a snack!
Materials:
- cardboard toilet-paper tube (or paper-towel tube cut in half)
- peanut butter
- knife
- birdseed
- 24 inch of ribbon (or just make it long enough to hang from tree branch
- empty box
- scissors
Instructions:
Step 1: Spread a coat of peanut butter all over the cardboard tube.
Step 2: Pour birdseed into the empty box so there is a thin layer covering the bottom of the box.
Step 3: Roll the cardboard tube in birdseed so the seeds adhere to the peanut butter and cover the tube.
Step 4: Thread a ribbon through the tube and tie ends together into a knot.
Step 5: Hang from a tree branch near your window and watch the birds feast!
