Pinecone Weather Station

An easy way to make observations and learn about the weather is by making your own pinecone weather station. Find some pinecones on the ground and put them outside on a window sill or by your home. You can check on them each day to see what changes you notice and record that information. For example, if it is going to rain, you may see the pinecones start to close up.
