Just get a paper cup, poke holes in it and fill it with your birds favourite treats.

Awesome! Just to make sure that you got the right one, her name is Debra Newman.

My cockatiel is very good at learning tricks, he learns them in a few days, so they are very quick at learning! Atm, he knows: turn around, flight recall, target and shake.
