4H Projects ~ Birdhouses

 

Tommy had his 4H4Him meeting today. This is our local homeschool 4H group that meets monthly. The project for March was birdhouses and birdfeeders.

There were 4 categories that they could have birdhouse / birdfeeder entries in:

1. Natural Materials ~ made from elements found in nature

2. Recycled Materials ~ made from recycled elements

3. Decorative Use

4. Functional Use

Tommy had entries in 3 of the categories for birdhouses…

Here’s a picture of Tommy and his dad working on his bluebird house

  2. Those are great! It always makes me excited to see that there are lots of fun things to do with the kids when they get older, too. :)
