Playdough Bird Nest:Ideas For Kids

Bird's Nest

Making this playdough bird nest is a lot easier than you might think. You need a garlic press which is a kitchen tool that can be purchased at grocery stores or Dollar stores.

To make the playdough bird's nest:

1. Roll out a small sized ball of playdough and press it flat.

2. Using a garlic press, push small amounts of playdough through it at a time for the twigs and gently press the "twigs" around the edge of the flattened piece of playdough.

3.Eggs:Roll out 3 small oval shaped balls of playdough and place in the center of the nest.

Tip: To make brown colored playdough, see my tip in my playdough recipes section.
