Last week we focused on lots of fun bird crafts you can do to get ready for spring~ bird craft roundup, bird hair clips, and birdie invitations. This week I wanted to concentrate on learning all about birds!
Yesterday I shared how we enjoy (birding) birdwatching at our home, and how we set up a bird resource center in our play room. Today, I wanted to share some really neat ways other bloggers invite birds to their homes and ways they share learning about birds with their children. Below are ideas on how to make your own bird feeders, how to make an adorable bird bath, tips for birding from home and ways to include your kids in all the fun! I hope you find all these ideas as inspiring as I do!
