Making bird feeders is a fun spring activity for kids that I look forward to doing with my girls every year.
Rosie and Jewel delight in watching the birds come to eat from feeders that they made themselves. Here is one easy way to make bird feeders with your kids this season.

We hung our bird feeders from tree branches just outside Rosie and Jewel's window so that they could watch the birds.  Each morning the girls are so excited to check and see if any animals are eating from their feeders!
