How to make it
1Gather nest stuff
Go for a walk and fill a bag with twigs, grass and small leaves.
2Snip some paper
Have your child cut the brown paper strips into short pieces.
3Squeeze a glue circle
Squeeze a big puddle of glue in a bowl shape on the cardstock.
4Build the nest
Let them press twigs, grass and paper into the glue. Messy is how birds build too.
5Add the eggs
Once dry, press 3 blue thumbprints in the middle for eggs.
Talk about what real birds use for nests while you walk. Kids start noticing nests in trees.
