🌿 Share the Joy of Bird Feeding & Connect Kids with Nature
Many kids today are missing out on the wonders of the great outdoors. It often feels like they've chosen to "go screen" instead of "going green." Fortunately, bird feeding is a simple, wonderful way to bridge that gap and bring children closer to the natural world.
Here are a few fun ways to spark their curiosity and get them involved:
- Get Hands-On: Build a simple feeder out of a recycled milk jug, or put together a more durable one using a backyard feeder kit.
- Observe and Track: Let them take charge of filling the feeders, then grab a notebook to sketch the birds and log each new feathered visitor that stops by.
- Bring Tech to the Yard: Meet them halfway on their screens! Help your child download the FREE Merlin Bird ID app, and use its Sound ID feature to listen to and identify the birds singing right in your neighborhood.
