At the pet store today, I was looking at the toys trying to come up with ideas....our new additions go through homemade toys in 2 days that take Fajr at least a week
. Probably because he is one bird who spends most of his time with humans, instead of two birds who have all day to wreak havoc on their toys. Bought one, which consisted of wood squares with holes drilled into them and ropes tied into those holes.Something which can easily be remade at home after being worn out.
Then went to 5 Below and saw those wiffle balls in various sizes and colors that they use for bird toys as well! Went through the entire store with bird toys in mind, the only other majorly bird-related thing I saw was a tiny golf set.
Just came home and hunted these down online as well:

Edit: Also found this, with instructions on how to bake the pine cones
