Another good idea....of someone else's

This is a big thanks to good friends whose ideas come through when you need something in a pinch. So thanks, Emily S. for another good idea about making pinecone birdfeeders with kids. I did this with Olivia's little preschool group this morning, except with minibagels instead of pinecones .....again, planning in a pinch. And in addition to making the birdfeeders we had a little lesson on birds and learned some they can identify locally. The kids had a really fun time, and I am sure that I looked very cool to the other kids' moms. And, of course, that was my point. They just need never know that the ideas were not my own. Shhhhhh.

You are too funny! Take the credit - you ARE totally cool anyway.

Fun....we have been loving the backyard birds. We even went and bought a fancy bird feeder once every last seed had been eaten from our pinecones.
