Parshas Beshalach contains so many beautiful themes. We feed the birds on this shabbos to show our gratittude to the little birds for eating up all of the Manna that was spread out on Shabbos. I like this craft because it involves the kids in the traditions of the week. I have the most marvelous memory of looking out the window on a cold Beshalach Shabbos and waiting for the birds to come and taste the treats we laid out for them.
To make crafting easy for you, I gathered all materials you need for this craft into my Amazon Storefront. (Note: I do make a small commision when you purchase using my link. This is one way you can support my work so I can keep bringing these ideas to you weekly.)
