Looking for fun way for kids of all ages to get creative with leaves? Start by giving your kids a bag and sending them outside to collect leaves. Encourage them to get many different shapes and colors.
For added fun, find many different kinds beforehand and hold up one leaf at a time asking them to find a matching leaf.
Once you have found a sufficient number of leaves, head back inside and grab some paper, crayons and glue. Start thinking and creating!
Lay out all the leaves you collected on the table and study their shapes. Move them around until you see an animal, person, or scene you would like to create and start gluing!
Get inspired and have fun creating fall decorations for the house.

** Bonus idea** Laminated creations make great fall placemats!
Any leaves left over? throw them back into a larger outdoor pile for jumping into. Dogs love it too and they may beat you to it!
Whenever possible, "leave the leaves!" Please protect the earth and do away with gas blowers that destroy the ground, the leaves and the atmosphere.
