      I love this particular unit, the birdbaths an absolute must in the upcoming warmer months, the lily pad game would be a perfect for a rainy day when we can’t get outside to play but still need to get some energy out. Can’t wait to try these great ideas!

      Definitely will make the bird bath in the spring with the children! They love painting plant pots as we have done this in the past for parent gifts! We love making bird feeders too with crisco and birdseed on the pinecones . Just collecting pinecones ready for the project!

      I commented on how we are surrounded by water so I want to pull container gardens in that pull the ponds and wildlife into our space.

        How wonderful! There are kits for ponds and lot’s of different container pond options too. Can’t wait to watch your new outdoor space evolve! So much fun!

        Is it this comment that you don’t see? It usually takes a bit because I need to approve all comments in the backend. I just want to make sure I didn’t miss one.

      I love the idea of attracting birds to our outdoor space. I would love to add a bird bath outside to attract the birds, but I’m also thinking of how I could connect this lesson to birds that may be migrating or adapting to the changes in the weather soon. We will be talking about how birds and other wildlife need to eat a lot when it’s available in the fall! This got me thinking about creating a feeding area for the birds.

      Since we do have a small cherry tree outside, I was thinking we could use the cherry tree as a space to help attract birds. As the leaves have fallen off of the tree, the branches of the tree are quite noticeable. We could use pinecones (hopefully collected from local pine trees by the students) with long strings attached to the top (I could hot glue these before hand), roll them in sunbutter (due to peanut allergies) and then roll the pinecones in bird seed. I’ve done this project years ago, but would love to bring it back! I could then hang these bird feeders from the cherry tree. We can count how many pine cones we have hanging, and then predict how many birds we will attract. The students can then count them from time to time as we make our observations.

        I love when “old” ideas are reborn new again with a new energy and excitement. So simple with so many possibilities. Have fun and take pictures.
