Bring on the Fall crafts! Fall is definitely my favourite season and the kiddos and I have been busy Fall crafting. This craft was really fun. The kids and I went outside and picked our leaves, and then came inside and made leaf people. We made our family to be exact. Kirsten especially enjoyed this. She took great care picking out the leaves that would become us. So fun. Here's the Dubien family in leaves:




and here's a family portrait made by my little Cam:

Here's what you need to make this craft:
paper
glue
lots of colourful fall leaves
googly eyes
sharpie
Direction:
1. go outside and pick some beautiful Fall leaves
2. arrange your leaves in a person or animal shape and glue to your paper
3. add googly eyes and sharpie mouth

ReplyDeleteVery sweet! Our leaves are still mostly green, but we'll be trying this project when the colours start appearing.
ReplyDeleteHA! I LOVE Cam's picture - that's totally what I feel like today!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute! I can't wait to do this with my little ones. We live in Florida, so it takes a bit for the leaves to turn colors here. Thanks for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteSeriously Jill, you are the cutest and most creative person I know! Well not know in person but you know what I mean! My kids were all with me reading this and now guess who will be making leaf people?
ReplyDeleteHugs and love,
Jill
You are totally amazing and fun and I want to come live with you!!lol.... FALL IS MY FAVORITE TIME OF YEAR!! love the leaves, pumpkins, yummy apples and cider. So much to love about this season. What a cute idea for the leaves and they came out great. Our leaves haven't turned color yet so I will save this idea.
ReplyDeleteBy the way how fun are the dinners you make? Do you do anything special, or creative? Just curious after seeing all your fun lunch ideas.
Hope Kristen is doing well in school still.
These are so cute! Great job!
ReplyDeleteSo cute!!! I have a book called "Look What I did with a Leaf" It is all about making leaf animals. Here is post I wrote the other day about different fall leaf books: http://preschoolteacher81.blogspot.com/2011/09/storytime-sunday.html
ReplyDeleteCute! Our leaves haven't changed much yet, but I'll have to remember this when they do!
ReplyDeleteGreat Idea!! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLove the leaves, but most of all let me tell zou from the other side of the emisphere (Italian-Slovenian border) that you gave me two super ideas for my everyday bento (my kids are studyig abroad, so I can pamper them only at the weekends when they return home): the frozen jogurt drink and the defrosting peas. Tnanks for improving my office lunch break. Ciao
ReplyDeleteAdorable!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great use of all those leaves we have hanging around our house these days! I love fall!
