    What better projects than those of conservation and nature to instill a sense of stewardship in children from ages 5 to 105? Birdhouses, and bird feeders are key ingredients to creating wildlife-friendly habitats that will enrich, encourage, and entertain feathered friends and their people hosts alike.

    As urban sprawl gives way to more natural habitats at an alarming rate, so many lessons can be taught through simple projects like wood birdhouse kits.  Whether scouts, school and church groups, or social activities, these kinds of projects help to raise an awareness about our very own immediate environments and how to enhance them. High quality, inexpensive kits are available in feeders, bat houses and may types of bird houses too. It’s easy to create wildlife habitat with proper nesting sites, and help wild birds thrive and flourish in your area.

    Wooden Birdhouse kits are available in feeders and bat houses too, and make for  excellent projects with kids of alwooden bird feeder kitsl ages.

    Be it church groups, scouts, or even school science curriculum, there’s no better way to teach kids about nature, wildlife, and the world around them.

    Thanks to The Cornell Lab of Orinithology’s “NestWatch” and affiliated citizen-science projects, teachers are provided with the tools they need to set up nest box trails at schools, through the “Home Tweet Home” partnership with Nature and PBS. Some schools are even monitoring nests as part of a new NSF-funded initiative called “Communicating Climate Change”, aimed at community projects that seek out local indicators of climate change.  In Ithaca, NY, Dewitt Middle School students monitor nests in wooden birdhouse kits, and record data such as first egg date, a critical piece of information used by researchers to understand how birds are responding to climate change.
