A Treat for the Birds (and Squirrels!)

This week we are making pinecone bird feeders at one of our centres.  Using vegetable oil shortening, sunflower seed, crushed cereal and plain popcorn we are creating delicious high-energy snacks for our feathered (and furry) friends.  Each child is making two feeders, one to hang on the tree outside our window and one to hang at home or in a local park.  Keep an eye out for a feeder coming home in your child's iBag.  (Don't worry - it's wrapped in wax paper!)
