You know what one of my absolute FAVORITE things about the fall is? Pinecones!
I know, I know, that might seem a bit silly. But, seriously, pinecones are awesome. They're pretty and you can make a ton of different decorations with them. Even better than decorating your house, though, is making a pinecone bird feeder with your kids. It's the autumn activity that I would put at the top of the fun and super-easy list of things to do outside. Don't you want to learn?!

In the SUPER adorable video I found, below, a mom and her son actually do all of the teaching–but it's so simple that anyone could do it! In fact, you'll hear yourself from the young boy how to craft the pinecone bird feeder. All you really need is a pretty pinecone, some peanut butter (maybe you want to make your own?), birdseed and string.
Seriously, doesn't that just sound easy? If I were you, I'd make a few of these fun fall family crafts and hang them all around. After all, you don't want just one spot where the birdies can get them–it's always much more fun to see them all around. So get crafting and make this pinecone bird feeder with your kids–they (and you) will love it!
