Toilet Paper Roll Bird Feeder

Here’s what you need:

  • toilet paper rolls (or use paper towel rolls or wrapping paper rolls!)
  • peanut butter or sun butter
  • bird seed
  • yarn or string

Next Steps:

1. Clean off any extra bits of paper from your toilet paper rolls, then cover them in a thin layer of peanut butter.

2. Pour out some bird seed onto a plate, then gently roll the toilet paper roll over the plate to pick up the bird seed. 

3. Thread a piece of string through the roll and tie it into a loop.

4. Head outside and hang the feeder from a tree!

 

Enjoy watching the birds love your eco-craft!
