It’s coming to the time of year when the birds in our gardens will be looking for extra food to munch on, these bird feeders will be a real treat and look cute too.
Zori used her fine motor skills threading blueberries and cheerios onto a pipe cleaner. You can really see her concentrating in this picture 🙂
We hung these up in the garden, Zori was really proud of her creation. It’s best to hang up any new bird feeder creation in the same area where your usual bird food is, this way you can ensure the birds will enjoy your tasty treat.
What a great idea to use cheerios! Genius 🙂 we are definitely going to try this idea! #LetKidsBeKids x

Just make sure the kids don’t eat all the Cheerios!

Lovely idea for little hands to get involved with, we always make bird feeders from melted lard and fruit but they’re not as instant as these!

We tried lard ones last year but then the sun came out and they ended up one big heap on the floor!!

These are lovely Lara, we have made them in activity hour before too, threading them onto old baler twine from Farmer Nick’s shed, as you say they are great for concentration and fun to make, great for coordination and then enjoy some outdoor fun watchingout for the birds to arrive
