I love preschool!! Look at what they made last week:


Instant bird feeder:
Pinecone, peanut butter and bird seed!
So far, the squirrels have gotten to it yet:-)

    Very cool. That is so much better than some of the stuff they make at preschool. I like useful things.

    That's so neat! I had a friend do that w/ her kids last year!! I'll have to try that! We have a bird feeder and it's so frustrating to see the squirrels try to sabotage it!

    It's a great way to teach them about nature too.

    So that's how you make a pinecone bird feeder.... Hannah said something about that a couple weeks ago & I had no clue what she was talking about! What a great idea for a school project!

    Now that is very creative! At least it's not covered in glue and cotton balls like some of the things you get from school!

    Thanks for stopping by my site! Happy WW!

    Oh, how neat! I would try that, but we live in a bear county and I'm too afraid it'll attract them to my house!! LOL. We had a birdfeeder once and a bear got to it. That was the last time we have filled it up. =)

    This is classic! And it actually works, which earns MAJOR bonus points.. although our squirrels always steal them away...

    You know what's hard, not licking fingers when they are covered with peanut butter & bird seed. LOL
