This morning at Forest Fun the children helped to make “bird cakes” to feed the birds. Fat was melted and seeds, oats and grated cheese were added and mixed together.
Each child filled a pot with the mixture, pressing it down with their spoons. Next week we will hang the bird cakes up for the birds to eat. The children have enjoyed lots of bird activities this fortnight:- singing The North Wind Doth Blow, listening to the story of Mole and Baby Bird, talking about wild birds, looking at pictures of different birds, creating a model of a bird and thinking about how birds can fly.
