Description

Birds are important members of many eco-systems.  They play a vital role in controlling pests, acting as pollinators, and maintaining the local ecosystem.  They are also very important to humans by serving as a source of food, and providing fertiliser, amongst other things.  The Parts of a Bird Activity helps the Child to understand how birds fly, eat and live.

There are over 10,000 species of birds around the world, however the actual number of birds is far more than that.  The National Geographic reckons that house sparrows could be as many as 1.6 billion, alone.

The Montessori zoological curriculum classifies all birds as members of the Phylum Chordata, and they are known as Aves. This activity is aimed at both the 3 to 6, and the 6 to 9 environments.
