What are some fun seasonal nature crafts I can do with my kids?

There are many great seasonal nature crafts! For spring, you can make flower crowns using wildflowers. In summer, try creating leaf rubbings with crayons. For autumn, how about making a pinecone bird feeder? And in winter, you can create snowflake decorations from paper.

Those sound great! Can you give me a step-by-step for the pinecone bird feeder?

Sure! Here’s how to make a pinecone bird feeder:

1. Gather a pinecone, peanut butter, birdseed, and string.
2. Tie a piece of string around the top of the pinecone.
3. Spread peanut butter all over the pinecone, making sure to get it into the crevices.
4. Roll the peanut butter-covered pinecone in birdseed until it's well coated.
5. Hang it outside on a tree branch and enjoy watching the birds!

What other materials can I use instead of peanut butter?

You can use lard or shortening as alternatives to peanut butter. You can also try using suet, which is great for attracting birds!

Can we do something with leaves for autumn?

Absolutely! You can create a beautiful leaf collage. Just collect various leaves, glue them onto a piece of cardstock, and let your kids decorate it with markers or glitter!
