Teacher video: How to make a pine cone bird feeder
This teacher video demonstrates how to make a simple pine cone bird feeder using everyday materials. It clearly lists the equipment needed, including a pine cone, string, bananas, oats, seeds and dried fruit, and explains how to prepare the mixture safely.
The video then guides teachers through each step of the process, from tying the string and mashing the bananas to measuring ingredients, mixing them together and coating the pine cone. It finishes by showing how to hang the feeder outdoors, supporting teachers in leading a practical activity that encourages care for wildlife and following instructions step by step.
