Birdy Bird Feeders

Really easy activity to do for a Wubbzy party, or renamed, great for any party. Chances are all of these supplies can be found at your local dollar store.

You will need:
Enough peanut butter for about 1/4 per kid
1 empty toilet paper roll for each kid
1 small sheet of wax paper per kid
1 length of about 15 inches twine or yarn per kid
1 safe plastic knife or spoon per kid
1 bag of bird seed
a few small plates (try the plates from your party)
a sharpie

Prep:
1. Cut out the lengths of twine/yarn.
2. Pull out the wax paper about as long as the toilet paper roll and tear
3. Collect toilet paper rolls
4. Fold up wax paper and stuff it, and string, into the toilet paper roll.

This makes your Birdy Bird Feeder "kit" for each kid.


Directions:
1. Grab a few plates and fill them with a layer of bird seed.
2. Open the containers of peanut butter and stick plastic knives in them.
3. Call the kids over and announce that it's time to make their birdy bird feeders.
4. Explain or demonstrate to the children that they are to create bird feeders by separating their "kits", spreading peanut butter on the outside of the toilet paper rolls rather thick, roll the peanut butter covered rolls in the birdseed, thread their string through the toilet paper rolls and tie a knot to hang them when they get home. Wrap each roll in the supplied wax paper, and tuck in the edges.
5. Write each child's name on the wax paper so they don't forget which is theirs.
