Pittsburgh workshop to provide TLC to winter birds
While some birds migrate to warmer locales, others choose to brave Pittsburgh winters, and an area event will offer these local feathered friends a helping hand.
Families interested in environmental stewardship may find the Winter Birds workshop coming up in Sewickley to be of interest. It is for kids from the ages of four to six, and it has a two-hour run time.
The session will see kids craft special treats to help keep winter birds well fed, and they will also discover how they make it through the cold winter months. The participants will learn some of the basics about the feathered friends that stay and why they do so, and as a story is included in the activity, it will also foster literacy in the attendees. The fee to take part is $37 when tickets are booked online, and there is enough capacity in the program for up to 10 students.
A hands-on class can show kids just how much fun caring for the avian set can be. Activity packs that include promotional pens as well as coloring sheets, brochures and small corporate gifts can be prepared for an event by a local printer.
The Sweetwater Art Center, which is located at 200 Broad Street, will offer this activity on February 18. It will begin at 10:00 am.
