An easy to make bird feeder using an empty toilet paper tube.
Make a Bird Feeder
This is a great project for very young children as well as older kids. It also works great for group crafts for scouts, Sunday school, summer camp or daycares.
What you will need:
• Cardboard toilet paper roll
• Wax paper or newspaper to work on
• Honey
• Plastic knife
• 2 foot piece of brightly colored yarn
• Paper plate
• Birdseed (use seeds that are small, the larger ones like sunflower seeds fall off).
Here's what you do:
Put the yarn through the hole in the toilet paper roll and lay out on a piece of wax paper or newspaper. Spread the honey all around the outside of the roll. Put birdseed on a paper plate. Roll toilet paper roll in birdseed. Tie a knot in the yarn, and hang on a tree!
