REQUEST A “CELEBRATE BIRDS” KIT for your school

From Cornell Lab of Ornithology

Birds add excitement to classrooms… and this kit can help teachers everywhere bring birds closer to their windows!

We are teaming up with Walmart and Pennington® Wild Bird Food brand to distribute free kits to 2,500 teachers across the country through their brand new Adopt-A-School program.  This kit provides a classroom with a bird feeder to put on their classroom window, as well as bird seed, kids' binoculars, fun classroom activities, and the chance to win a mini-grant that will help the schools hold a Celebrate Birds event! Nominate your school via this simple form.
