With the early snow, we thought about how most of the bird's food (bugs, berries, seeds...) might have been covered and so we discussed about creating "natural bird feeders" from what is all around us!
We read "Welcome Brown Bird" by Mary Lyn Ray about a Thrush migrating and two boys that wait for him.
At the end of the day, we read "Pie in the Sky" by Lois Ehlert - Ask me about what kind of pie they were waiting for.
Here is a website to explore which birds winter in Calgary and might enjoy our bird feeders!

Enjoy our pictures of gathering, creating and then hanging our bird feeders. Ask me what I used on my bird feeder!
Have a wonderful weekend. Watch for bugs and birds! Enjoy the beautiful weather outside!
Looking Ahead...
Tuesday is Fun Lunch
Wednesday is PICTURE DAY!
It also looks great weather wise - we will most likely have Run Club - so IF your child wants to run thanks for putting in a change of clothes - it is hard to run in fancy shoes:)
Thursday is Literacy Night - 6:00-7:00PM - come and see how your child engages in literacy at Dr. E.W. Coffin and get their Home reading all set up in the Library.
