Easter time is rolling up on us quickly, another idea for a toy.
One cardboard ( no styrofoam) egg carton cut in half for smaller birds or whole carton for bigger birds.
(Make sure it clean clean clean, no gunk)
Easter paper grass for shred
Mini muffin papers for under whatever you choose for cups
Assorted treats like plain popcorn, nutriberries, aviacakes, freeze dried fruit.
Assorted wooden beads, wooden blocks, magnolia seed pods, big plastic beads.
Smaller birds cut the egg carton in half with sharp scissors or electric knife.
Get the treats and toys together.
Line egg cup with mini muffin paper and add the surprises in the cups.
Lay the Easter paper style grass over the top thickly and close the lid.
With crochet hook pull the shred out through the top of the carton and along the ends/ sides. To entice and engage their Curiosity IMG_0846.jpeg

Hope your birds will love their Easter carton
