Bird Seed Craft for Kids

March 9, 2009 Lana

Bird Seed Craft for Kids

I’ve been wanting to do more crafts with my children. Last week in school, we made our own bird cakes.
Bird Seed, flour and water is all you need.
I mixed the flour (maybe 1/2 cup of flour and a 1/4 cup of water) into a paste.  Added a cup of bird seed.
Mix well.
(Some recipes have used gelatin, honey or other sticky suet.  We haven’t tried that yet, but might in the future!)
We baked them on the lowest setting our oven allowed.
I actually forgot about them and couldn’t figure out where that odd smell was coming from…the kitchen.
Baking bird seed is well for the birds.
It turned out rather nicely.
Sitting pretty for our feathered friends.
Come and get it!
We never saw any birds actually eat the cakes.
But, we do assume something ate the seeds because they are now gone.

    I think you may have really fed the squirrels or raccoons, but it looks like you had a fun little family time – so who cares which critter ate well, right?

May the LORD bless you and keep you; May the LORD make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; May He turn His face toward you and give you peace. Feel free to leave a comment - we LOVE to hear your thoughts! ~Blessings to you!~ ~You are so loved!~ ~Lana (Like Banana)~
