Tried my luck at home-made toys....

Made two before I lost my creative juices for the evening lol.


One is just little paper cups strung together with yogurt covered papaya pieces and nutriberries inside with shredding paper on top.


The other has wood blocks, these weird shaped plastic pieces and dehydrated orange slices strung together.


Hopefully they will be half torn apart tomorrow when I come home from work... : )

Ive been wanting to make my own toys. The ones I buy are very expensive and they go through them so fast.

Great Idea What kind of wood blocks did you use?

Very good! See, toys don't have to be expensive, or intricate. They look great. Remember, If they can't destroy it, they don't enjoy it!

Everything came from Mysafebirdstore. The leather rope and all the parts : )

The wood blocks were 11 cents a piece!!

She has so many neat things you can buy and use to make your own toys at a great value.

My good friend and co-worker is planning on getting two cockatiels that will be weaned here pretty soon, so I told her I'd make them a couple toys....gonna try to work on those tonight. Ill post pics if they come out well lol.

Its actually kinda fun and Tate was very interested in watching ; )
