Bird Feeder Building For An Awesome Autumn Kids love to go outside in the fall. The weather is just right, just past the heavy heat of summer but not quite to the crazy cold of winter. Fall festivals and harvest fairs abound nearly every weekend from mid-September, all the way up to trick-or-treat at the end of October. Dont forget, of course, that big pile of leaves that mom and dad just raked up that are just begging to be jumped into and scattered. With that in mind, Allison Richter Wildlife Studios is always looking for new ways for kids to enjoy the experience of our feathered fellows while making the most of the fall festivities. Weve come up with some simple but clever bird feeder building ideas that can create merry memories of family fun. The first, and simplest, is the classic pine cone bird feeder. This is also the one where little hands would be able to contribute the most. Step 1: collect some pine cones! (By the way, just in case you didnt know, kids LOVE to collect pine cones). Step 2: slather said pine cones with some peanut butter. Step 3: dip the pine cones in some bird seed. Step 4: clean the mixture of peanut butter and bird seed off of your kids. Step 5: Hang the whole concoction upside down on a string from some low hanging branches.
