Lori toy idea & Q' ...

I have noticed my lori loves straws. He also loves anything with a crack or crevice.

I want to make a "straw flower". I want to cut straws into 1"-1 1/2" strips and put them in a plastic mold. Then I can fill them with different goodies that he can discover.

Has anyone built a toy for Lori's that encourages them to use their tongues?

I have taken a bunck of straws and tied them together with a wire zip tie really tight so they srawl out on the ends. Then hung it with string. But to fill each one would be a lot of work
