Bird house craft

This summer we are participating in the leapfrog summer camp. This week was all about caring for animals. Not only is there dozens of print out worksheets to do, there is at least one craft each week. This week we decided to do the birdhouse craft. We happened to have everything needed already. I recommend just using things that you already have.
What you will need:
Milk carton (a cardboard type carton works best, soy milk, orange juice...)
Scissors
Stick (we found a stick outside)
Paints, crayons, markers, construction paper, glue, or whatever you want to decorate you birdhouse with.
Twine or wire
Basically, cut a hole that a bird can fit through. Put the stick below the hole and decorate. Some can add a roof, or a window. This is largely up to your imagination.
What I did was I cut the hole, added the stick and painted it all white a day in advance. We used poster paint. I laid a drop cloth down on our outdoor table and let her go to town. She asked me to add a bird and a window and the words "Bird's Inn". We let it dry outside for a few hours and we hung it in one of our trees. Since I used wire for the hanging part I was able to carry a ladder outside and let her hang it. I think she was very proud of that project.
