This is a great craft that teaches your children the importance and joy of reusing and making recycled crafts. Parents, make sure to help your child with the cutting. To add a little more fun to the project, kids can paint the outside for extra flare!
Supplies:
- 1 8th Continent Soymilk carton, free with purchase of 8th Continent Soy Milk
- scissors
- Xacto Knife
- yarn or twine
- bird seed
First, enjoy and drink your 8th Continent Soymilk until it’s empty, then wash it thoroughly.
After the carton is dry, cut a square in two opposing sides of the carton. I used an Xacto knife for cleaner lines.
Make sure the lip of the bird feeder is high enough from the bottom of the carton so that you are able to put bird seed inside.
Using the tip of the Xacto knife, puncture the top of the carton and rotate the blade slowly in a circle to make a hole.
String your yarn or twine through the hole.
Fill the birdfeeder with bird seed and find a limb outside of your window where you can enjoy the view of birds coming up to their new Sunny 8th Continent bird feeder.
