    Eagle Nest Ideas

    Nest Snack

    Each child crumples into a bowl one regular shredded wheat biscuit
    (not the bite-sized), Use one big bowl for everyone.

    Add about 1/8 - 1/4 cup coconut per kid
    A little less brown sugar per kid
    Mix
    Add melted butter (I did 1 cup for 8 kids) and mix

    Line a muffin tin with tin foil & spray with pam.

    Form a nest shape.
    Let each child add some chineese noodles to the edges.
    Bake 350 for 20 min.

    When cool add malted eggs, gummy worms and gummy fish

    **We did this instead:
    Put mixture into individual paper trays (like from restaurants) & microwaved till butter boils

    Oh-my-gosh they loved this.


    What have you done to make this eagle nest part of your curriculum?

    BRILLIANT !!!!!!!

    My kids have been reinacting the eagles feeding their babies and building their "nests" with our baby blankets.

    They LOVE watching the babies.

      Oh I love this and will use it next week for sure! My kids have been playing baby eagles all week as well, building nests and having me "feed" them.

        Sadly, I only have one old enough to understand what she is seeing. And she was totally unimpressed when I showed her the video with the babies.

              I have to say that the eagles are getting really funny to watch...in ten minutes I've watched feeding time, two baby eagles poop (they lean reeeeally far forward and then squirt the poo right out of the nest!), mama eagle drop a stick on top of one of the babies, and both parents were off the nest (leaving babes alone) for about a minute or two.
