Provide your child with a pair of binoculars. Ask your child what happens when she looks through the binoculars? Allow time for your child to enjoy exploring her environment through the lenses of the binoculars.
Next, invite your child to make her own pair of binoculars using two toilet paper roles. After making the handmade binoculars, go birdwatching in your backyard or nearby park. What birds did you see through your handmade binoculars? Bring along a Bird Guide to help identify the birds.
