  4. tie some yarn on one end of the pine cone to be able to hang on a tree

Activity Wrap Up:
Where do pine cones come from? Can we plant them? If we do plant them, What will grow from the pine cones? How long do they think it will take to grow? What else can we make with pine cones? etc.

How do I know what my child is learning? (Assessment)
Is your child able to tell you where do pine cones come from?

How can you extend this activity? (Modifications)
If your child doesn’t feel like making bird feeders, they can paint them to look likes little bushes or anything they want to make them look like 

Helpful Hints: (Pitfalls & Solutions)
If you don’t have bird seeds, you can crush some crackers and use that.
