We’re not suggesting you necessarily ditch your sausages for breakfast, but learning ancient hunting techniques is both fun and educational for kids.
With two lengths of paracord (or boot laces) and a bundle of sticks, you can show your kids how to make a bird trap and turn yourself from couch dad or mum into survival expert. Arapuca traps are used to catch live birds in Brazil, either as lunch or as pets.
A nice, easy, lazy project.
