Beaver Park and Milk Jug Bird Feeders

On Wednesday, February 10th we visited Beaver Park in Lisbon. We discovered what a hidden gem this park is in our part of the state. Most of our families had never been there before and were pleasently surprised to learn that you can go there to walk, picnic, fish or swim. One really neat thing about Beaver Park is that it has a fitness trail. The children had a fun time trying out the exercises they saw on the signs. When we asked the children if they wanted to visit the park's playground we got a unanimous 'Yes' vote. The playground didn't disappoint. The kids had fun climbing on the log cabin climbing structure, on the stacked tires and through the tunnels. Some of our members and parents took the opportunity to look for signs of wildlife. They even discovered a tree that was severly pecked by a woodpecker.

After our cold-weather walk we ventured to the park's garage where the kids enjoyed making their own trail mix while we warmed up by the fire. After snacking we got busy making milk jug bird feeders. The children were very creative with their feeders and were eager to have embellishments hot glued to their feeders.

Here is a tutorial of how to make a milk jug bird feeder.
