Summer is here, and it's the perfect time to introduce your kids to the wonders of birdwatching! Not only is birdwatching a fun and educational activity, but it also helps children develop a love for nature and the environment.
Why Birdwatching with Kids?
Birdwatching is a great way to bond with your children while teaching them about the natural world. It's a fantastic outdoor activity that encourages patience, observation skills, and an appreciation for wildlife.
Getting Started: Tips for a Fun Birdwatching Experience
1. Set Up a Bird Feeder and Plan an Adventure:
Place a bird feeder in your backyard or a nearby park to attract a variety of birds. Our bird feeder with a camera allows kids to see birds up close and learn about different species directly on their mobile devices.
Prepare for a birdwatching adventure by setting up the feeder and using our app to identify birds. The app guides kids to select side-view pictures of birds and ensures that the entire bird is within the frame.
2. Create a Birdwatching Kit:
Equip your little ones with a simple birdwatching kit that includes a notebook and a bird guidebook. Let them jot down their observations and draw pictures of the birds they see. With our bird feeder's camera feature, there's no need for binoculars.
3. Learn Bird Calls:
Teach your kids to identify birds not just by sight but also by their calls. There are many apps and online resources available to help with this.
4. Make it a Game:
Turn birdwatching into a fun game by creating a bird bingo or a scavenger hunt. Challenge your kids to spot different birds and mark them off their list.
Join the Fun:
We are excited to announce that we have launched a Facebook account where you can share your birdwatching videos! Capture the beautiful moments with your bird feeder and post them on Facebook with the hashtag #onlyflybirdfeeder. Let’s inspire more families to explore the wonders of nature together.
Birdwatching is not just an activity; it's an opportunity to create lasting memories with your children and foster a lifelong love for nature. Happy birdwatching! 🐦🌿
