Make a Bird Feeder with Reused Items
Learning about birds on Earth Day is a
great way to celebrate. Even better is creating bird feeders out of
items you already have around the house. Instead of throwing them out,
reuse them and learn about nature.
Here Are Some Easy Ideas to Put your
Bird Feeders Together
-
Use an old plastic bottle. Poke holes,
so birds can pull out seeds. Place a stick all the way through the
bottle, so birds have somewhere to perch. Hang the feeder from a tree.
-
Use a simple pie or plastic plate to
place birdseed. Poke drainage holes.
-
Find other old containers around the
house and turn them into a feeder. Kids can paint or decorate the
feeders.
Tip: Place feeders up high or
hang it of reach of other critters.

Earth Day - Hooray!
Earth Day is on the way, and Ryan,
Luke, and Carly have a plan. If they manage to collect and recycle 5,000
aluminum cans, they can make enough money to buy some beautiful flowers for
nearby Gilroy Park.
