Easy to Make Bird Feeder
One of the perks of having a garden is to have beautiful wild animals roam your garden. Having birds in your garden is indeed a pleasure, for you will be able to hear hordes of it chirp in your background. Try this simple bird feeder to fill your garden with these delightful tiny creatures!
You will need :
- one empty toilet paper roll
- Jar of Peanut Butter
- Wild Bird Seed
How to :
- Take the empty toilet paper roll and poke a hole in the top to put some string or craft wire through for hanging when done.
- Take peanut butter and spread evenly, but covering the roll well.
- Roll in loose bird seed. Hang out side where you can watch the birds enjoy their treat.
- This is a healthy winter treat for the birds, as the peanut butter helps them to stay warm.
Bubbles
You will need :
- Mix 2 T Joy dishwashing soap with 1 C water.
- The secret to tough bubbles is adding glycerin. (This is available at any drugstore …
I promise. Its cheap too.)
- Start by mixing in 1-2 t. Add more if you want super bubbles that can bounce.
- Pipe cleaners can be bent into good bubble wands.
Corn Starch Goo
(non-toxic and inexpensive, brushes away from fabric when dry)
Not a practical mixture at all, it just feels really cool….
- Pour a half a box of corn starch into a shallow cake pan.
- Slowly add water while your child stirs the mixture with her hands.
- Add some food coloring if you like. This is just a toy.
