On Friday, to celebrate our Construction theme for June, our momstown KW mama's and kiddos trekked over to Breithaupt Park in Kitchener to learn how to build bird feeders out of an empty water bottle, a wooden dowel, some fishing line, and of course birdseed! The bonus to this location was that the kids could run wild and play once the bird feeders were built. Breithaupt park has a great little playground, good for littler and bigger kids. It also has a wonderful splashpad for warm days.

Once everyone actually found the location (who knew there are multiple areas to Breithaupt Park?) We all had a blast! The splash pad turned on right before we began birdhouse building (which meant a lot of the kiddos took off!).
Thankfully, with some picture assisted directions and moms working together, everybody left with a ready-to-hang bird feeder. They're pretty, functional, and best of all they reuse plastic bottles making these bird feeders eco-friendly!
Aren’t they cute?! I am sure all of the birdies will LOVE eating from them! And the kids will LOVE checking out all the pretty birds looking for a snack. Our momstown moms can't wait for the activity! But, in the meantime, they can check out the momstown Arts & Crafts Blog for more Construction theme ideas.
