Trees provide us with many gifts. Birds use trees to build nests, but in the winter, Jacob thought we might want to build a birdhouse to keep the birds warm. First he designed the house and then invited others to help build it. There was much planning and measuring. What tools did we need? "Glue, nails, and hammer. We tried nails but they were too long. It was soon determined that glue might be the best adhesive. Our first construction efforts were not successful but we persevered and continued with different adhesives made especially for wood. It took team work and careful planning. 
Thank you for sharing this! I love seeing the process they went through to build the bird house. You can tell by looking at the finished product that their careful planning paid off!
ReplyDeleteWhat an inspiring experience! It was so cool to see the children observing birds through the window after the bird house went into the tree.
