Nature Club







Ms. Pat's Nature Club met on December 13 and 14 to make Christmas presents for the birds. Although we are having a mild winter (so far) with little snow, the weather will very likely get colder and snowier and we want to help our little feathery friends.
We used little milk cartons for the feeders, and added twigs for a resting place, as well as yarn to hang it all from the tree. We took home wild bird seeds and planned to place the bird feeders in a tree or bush at home.
It was lots of fun and the kids were all excited to help out Nature!
