Nolan's Birdfeeder

This morning Nolan made a birdfeeder...




Here's how:
  • Find a pinecone. In the winter they are wet and kind of sad looking but once they dry out in the house, they open up and look normal again.
  • Buy some birdseed. We bought a big bag at the dollarstore.
  • Tie a string to the top of the pinecone. We used yarn. Make sure it is long enough to tie to a tree branch. 
  • Coat the pinecone with peanut butter. I found it didnt have to be very thick.
  • Sprinkle birdseed onto peanutbutter. We did this but then rolled the pinecone in a small pile of birdseed to get any places we missed. You may have to push the birdseed into the peanut butter to make sure it sticks well. 
  • Hang outside for the birds!

  1. That is such a simple way to make a bird feeder! I might just have to do that! I could even get Rebekah to help me with it :)
