Gifts for the Birds

We made edible birdseed ornaments today! It was a great project for this age. All it required was cutting shapes from bread, spreading them with eggwhite, sprinkling on the seeds and baking for 5 minutes. Here is the setup before we got started.Orion doing some sprinkling.
Setting a shape on the cookie sheet.
Ready for the oven.
Orion progressively more undressed. I keep the temp about the same, and some days he says he is cold, some days he takes off his clothes. Who knows?
On to making some Cheerio garlands.



Tree in the backyard with a few ornaments and a garland. I wanted to make more, but this was about all that held O's attention. Maybe we will do more another day if we see the birds went for them.
We put these by our front window so hopefully we can watch the birds get them!
