Keep your little ones busy this summer with this environment inspired activity.

Summer challenge: bird masks

The summer holidays are here! Congratulations kids, you made it. Parents, good luck!

Six weeks is a long time to keep the little ones busy, we get it, so we’re here to help. Introducing the Summer Challenge – six farming and environment themed activities to get your children’s creative juices flowing.

Week 1 – bird masks

On the farms, we have barn owl and kestrel nesting boxes to boost biodiversity. This week, create a bird mask using leaves, flowers (with permission), and anything creative! Colour it, paint it – the choice is yours! We've provided barn owl and kestrel templates to get you started, or you can make your own.

What you need

  • Cardboard or paper
  • Scissors (ask an adult to help you)
  • Colouring pencils or pens
  • Feathers, leaves, flowers, grass – whatever you plan to decorate your mask with
  • PVA glue

Show us your creations

Tag us on social media @dysonfarming with your amazing masks!
